Missionaries are invisible heroes who transform our society on a daily basis.

In many parts of the world, religious and missionaries are the ones who sustain the most vulnerable communities, bringing the love of God primarily but also humanitarian assistance and aid and social development.

ACN is a pontifical association.

Founded in 1947 as a Catholic relief organization for war refugees and recognized as a pontifical foundation since 2011, ACN is dedicated to serving Christians around the world.

Missionaries need your support

With your help, ACN – Aid to the Church in Need annually supports more than 5,000 pastoral projects in over 145 countries around the world.

We focus on supporting local churches, especially in those countries where the Church cannot support itself or, if it does, only with great difficulty.
