Help Indigent Priests with fundraising or outreach
The Friends of Indigent Priests Foundation (FIPF) is a faith-inspired initiative founded in Nigeria, with a heartfelt mission to care for Catholic priests who serve with deep dedication but live in genuine hardship.
These are men who have said “yes” to God, renouncing worldly comforts to minister to the spiritual needs of others, yet many of them lack the basics we often take for granted: decent meals, access to healthcare, warm clothing, and sometimes even a roof over their heads.
“Whoever gives even a cup of cold water to one of these little ones because he is a disciple, truly I tell you, he will never lose his reward.”
– Matthew 10:42
This is why FIPF exists — to stand in the gap and be the quiet answer to their unspoken prayers.
We began in Nigeria, but our mission is growing, reaching priests across other parts of Africa, wherever faithful servants are silently bearing the burden of lack.
Your donation, no matter how small, becomes:
“The laborer deserves his wages.”
– Luke 10:7
“How beautiful are the feet of those who bring good news!”
– Romans 10:15
We believe that no priest who gives everything should be left with nothing.
By supporting FIPF, you’re not just giving to a cause — you’re honouring a calling, restoring hope, and becoming part of something eternally impactful.
“Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers of mine, you did for Me.”
– Matthew 25:40
Be the reason a priest smiles today. Help a shepherd in need. Give in love. Give with purpose. Give NOW!
Be the reason a PRIEST never walks alone!

Priests in these remote regions are often the sole source of spiritual guidance, education, and hope for their communities. Together, we ensure the flame of faith burns brightly even in the most challenging circumstances.
To uplift and empower priests in rural and underserved areas, providing them with the resources, encouragement, and solidarity needed to fulfill their divine calling and support their communities spiritually and physically.
A world where no community is too remote to feel the presence of faith, and no priest feels unsupported in their ministry.
Your donation is not just charity — it is a lifeline.
Help us lift up those who carry the cross in silence.
"The support we have received has been a lifeline to our mission. With the aid for basic supplies, I can continue to serve my community in rural Nigeria, bringing Mass to areas that have no other form of religious support. This charity has allowed me to continue my work without worrying about the lack of resources."
"As a member of the community, I’ve seen the difference that this support makes. The priests who visit us are often the only source of comfort and guidance for many of our people. The donation of vestments and travel stipends means so much to us, ensuring that we can continue receiving the sacraments and spiritual care."
"We are so grateful for the help we’ve received. The priests who visit us provide more than just spiritual guidance; they bring hope. Thanks to the aid provided, they have the resources to visit us more frequently, and this has been a great blessing for our community. It feels like we are not forgotten."
"In my remote parish, the journey to reach my flock can take hours by foot, and the resources available to us are extremely limited. Thanks to the generosity of supporters, I now have the necessary funds to travel and reach my community regularly. The impact of this is immeasurable—people who would otherwise go without the sacraments now have them, and their faith is strengthened."
