Our Past World Projects

What is a World Project?

A World Project is a charitable project which is supported by GFS Worldwide.

The purpose of the World Project Fund is to assist GFS members with funding of new initiatives and for the promotion of GFS in new countries. Locally, GFS Ireland encourages all dioceses to support the project both prayerfully and financially.

How are World Projects Selected?

Part of the business of the World Council is to decide on the World Project.

Project Submissions

Those countries wishing to submit a World Project for consideration should submit them 6 months before the start
of a World Council meeting, using the required form.

The submission will include:

• Completed submission form

• A letter of support from the responsible Bishop/Archbishop of the country making the submission,

Note* There may be more than 1 World Project chosen for any one period.
