Fundaci

Fundaci is a Catholic association based in Poitiers, France, that focuses on the spiritual formation of young adults, evangelization, and the development of lay vocations through prayer and active community commitment. Operating as a not-for-profit private association of the faithful, the organization runs global initiatives supporting families, social and political leaders, and marginalized communities across multiple countries. The entity manages international educational programs through its Institutes of Formation, such as IFF Europe, and operates ecumenical Laudato Si’ Centres dedicated to environmental care and social projects. The group is funded through Church recognition and ongoing member commitments. Fundaci received formal recognition from the bishop of Versailles in 1995 and was later acknowledged as an international association of the faithful by the Pontifical Council for the Laity on December 25, 2008. Fundaci was founded in 1974 by Jean-Michel Rousseau.
