About Us
Mission Fund was founded on 16th April 1984. It is a lay Catholic organization set up with the aim of assisting all Maltese missionaries. At present over 200 missionary stations in about 40 countries from Albania to Zimbabwe receive regular donations of 1,200 Euros on a roster basis, while the five Maltese Bishops in Kenya, Brazil, Honduras, Libya and Albania each receive 2,400 Euro. Maltese missionaries use donations to build schools, clinics and shelters for the homeless, to buy medicines, pay hospital fees and maintain vaccination programmes, and to better the lives of so many persons living below the poverty line.

The website
This website was launched on 20 March 2008 and is regularly updated with the latest news, important information about our missionaries and details of the fund-raising activities which are organized from time to time.
The scope of the website is to keep contact with our Maltese Missionaries who are presently working in 40 countries throughout the globe, as well as with our local benefactors, without whose help the scope of the Mission Fund would not be achieved.
