Newman Connection is a non-profit organization dedicated to providing a national support structure and unified brand to Catholic campus ministry. We assist these campus ministries in their growth by:
  • Providing a national outreach program, connecting students from all over the country to campus ministry.
  • Establishing a national prayer hour specifically for the benefit of campus ministry.
  • Creating educational programing that is available online, in the classroom or in the field on a retreat.
Our Impact

Newman Connection has a direct impact on strengthening today’s Catholic youth in the faith during their college years. Newman Connection serves as an umbrella of support over the country’s Catholic campus ministries. With your help, we can continue to deliver on these promises and help more students come to Christ and stay committed Church members in the years to come. Below is a list of our combined accomplishments:
