The Catholic Foundation for the Diocese of Green Bay was established in 
1997 by Bishop Robert Banks. Don and Darlene Long were initial founders, and Don served as our first Board President. Throughout the Foundation’s history they have encouraged stewardship, Catholic endowments and investments that benefit the Diocese of Green Bay, it’s ministries, parishes and schools throughout northeastern Wisconsin.
The Catholic Foundation conducts the annual Bishop’s Appeal and administers more than 250 endowment funds with assets of more than $100 million.
