The Catholic Foundation has unveiled a brand-new website for the first time, marking a significant step forward in its mission to serve the Catholic community in the Diocese of Lansing. Designed with modern aesthetics and functionality in mind, the new platform aims to offer a seamless experience for donors, beneficiaries, and community members seeking to support and connect with the Foundation’s charitable efforts.
One of the new website's most notable aspects is its user-friendly interface. The redesigned layout ensures easy navigation, allowing visitors to quickly access information about the Foundation’s mission and donation opportunities. Whether users want to contribute financially or learn about Catholic philanthropy, the streamlined design makes the process more intuitive.
“Our goal was to create an online space that is both inviting and informative,” said Isaac Owen, Development Officer for The Catholic Foundation. “We want everyone to feel at home on our website, making it easier for Catholics across our diocese to engage with our mission and take meaningful action.”
The Catholic Foundation’s new website boasts several enhancements designed to improve user experience. A mobile-responsive design ensures that visitors can easily browse and interact with the platform on smartphones, tablets, and desktops alike. Additionally, improved accessibility features cater to users with disabilities, reinforcing the Foundation’s commitment to inclusivity.
A key feature of the revamped website is an endowment donation portal, which, for the first time, allows donors to give directly to the Foundation's numerous endowments. With just a few clicks, donors can make contributions, set up recurring gifts, and designate their donations to specific funds to benefit catholic education, catholic charities, seminarian education, and many more worthy causes.
To further strengthen community ties, the website includes a dedicated blog and news section, offering regular updates on Foundation activities, success stories, and insightful reflections on Catholic giving. Visitors can also sign up for newsletters and event notifications to stay informed about upcoming initiatives.
With its new online presence, The Catholic Foundation is poised to expand its outreach and strengthen its impact. By leveraging technology to enhance communication and engagement, the Foundation is better equipped to serve the community and fulfill its mission of faith-based giving and service.
The launch of this website is just one step in an ongoing commitment to innovation and connection. As the Foundation continues to grow, it remains dedicated to fostering a spirit of generosity and making a lasting difference in the lives of those it serves.
