ESTABLISHED in 1956, the Catholic Development Fund Melbourne (CDF) is a Religious Charitable Development Fund that exists to provide financial services to Catholic organisations in the Archdiocese of Melbourne, the Diocese of Sale and the Diocese of Bunbury.
The CDF is a fund of the Archbishop and as such comes under the responsibility of the Archbishop of Melbourne. Funds invested with the CDF are used to support the mission of the Church in Australia by providing low cost development funding to all Catholic organisations including parishes, parish primary schools, secondary colleges, religious orders, diocesan agencies, hospitals and aged care operators.
The fund offers excellent returns on investments. For further information, brochures are available in the narthex or on their website.
The brochures provide information only, and are not meant for investment advice.
