The Franciscan Missions provides direct financial support for missions of the Order of Friars Minor throughout the world. Funds have supported orphanages, soup kitchens, medical clinics, sustainable water projects, and the development of farms to feed and to teach others to farm. We fund the education of Franciscan missionaries, the building of churches, housing for the poor, and formation housing for Franciscan students. We have provided for humanitarian relief in Haiti, the Philippines, Syria and Ecuador.

One of our specific goals is to educate the world, particularly in the United States, about the mission work of the Order. This is currently done by visiting Franciscan missionaries who preach in parishes each summer, and through our mailings to generate awareness of and financial support for this important work.
