Never Alone
Faith on the Line
Without Newman Connection, thousands of students drift silently from the Church each year. With us, they stay connected to Christ and community.
EVERY GIFT = DOUBLE IMPACT
Up to $50,000 Match
1 million young Catholics graduate each year.
Over 80% drift away.
Not because they stop believing,
but because no one calls their name.
We connect students to a Catholic community before the drift begins.
Every student connected. Every parent confident. Every ministry awakened.
“Thanks for providing this connection. Our son was able to get involved with the Newman Center at UW-Milwaukee and we are grateful for that!"

Keeping Catholic Students Connected to Faith and Community
The Connection That Changes Everything
Leaving home is a crossroads: faith can either grow roots or slip away. For too many Catholic students, it’s the moment they quietly disappear from the Church, sometimes forever. Campuses, military bases, and new cities don’t wait, and the Church can’t afford to either. Without action, parents grieve, students feel invisible, and the Body of Christ loses its next generation.
That’s where Newman Connection steps in. For over 15 years, we’ve built bridges between high schools, parishes, and campus ministries. Through the Faith Forward movement, we’ve already introduced more than 600,000 students to faith community.
Here's how your gift impacts students' salvation
Newman Connection exists to bridge the gap for young Catholics at life’s most critical transition point. With our partners—and with your support—students are welcomed, ministries are strengthened, and faith is kept alive. Together, we make this possible.
Don’t let them disappear
Too many young people feel distant from their faith. That’s why we’ve built the largest Catholic high school outreach in America, to reach the 80% who risk walking away.
With your help, we can reach even more.
Empowering students and disciple-makers
Every faith journey is unique, and young people yearn for authentic relationships and meaningful connections. Your gift helps us connect them with ministry leaders.
You make this possible.
Equipping campus ministries for success
Ministry leaders often lack the resources they need to engage young Catholics. Through donor-funded, free tools, we connect leaders nationwide, share best practices, and build strong communities rooted in prayer, formation, and mission.
Your generosity ensures they have what they need to succeed.
Faith doesn't end in high school
Too many young adults lose their Catholic faith in college (and many even before they arrive on campus). You can help change that. Will you respond in this critical moment?
With your help, we don’t just hand out resources; we connect young people their faith family.
With your help, Christ will remain in session
Together, we can ensure that every young Catholic feels connected to Christ and their community—today, wherever they are headed, and for a lifetime.
