Show your values to the faithful

Get CST Certified to show your institution’s portfolio aligns with Catholic teaching.

The Problem

A matter of trust

Dioceses, universities, Catholic charities, and other institutions steward millions of dollars of donations. But some Catholic institutions are unwittingly funding causes they publicly denounce, and they aren’t even aware of it. 

Even if your institution’s portfolio is already compliant with Church teaching, there’s not an easy way to show it. This leaves a question in the minds of faithful donors: is my money funding the opposite of what I believe in? 

If you want to put donors’ mind at ease, we’ve developed a simple solution: the Catholic Social Teaching (CST) Certification.

SCREEN YOUR PORTFOLIO
Growing mistrust

Faithful Catholics don’t trust the organizations who don’t explicitly align with the Church’s teaching.

Moral compromise

Investing against our own principles detracts from the moral authority of our institutions.

Shrinking donations

In an environment of distrust, faithful Catholics are less likely to give, not knowing where their money goes.

The Solution

Get certified

Arimathea developed our CST Certification so institutions can easily show their commitment to ethical investing at no cost.* This certification verifies that an institution’s portfolio is aligned with the Church’s teaching.

Here’s how it works:

Arimathea NDA
Arimathea signs an NDA with your organization to ensure complete privacy.
Portfolio Analysis
With the help of our Advisors and our proprietary platform, we will audit your investments to screen for CST violations.
Alignment Report
We’ll deliver an in-depth report and explanation of any issues, along with recommendations for aligned investments. These can be shared with your current advisor, or you can onboard an Arimathea Accredited Advisor (AAA) to help.
CST Certified Badge
Once your portfolio is purified, you can display the CST Certified badge online and in all professional settings. You’ll resubmit your portfolio annually to ensure ongoing compliance.
Get Promoted to Catholic Donors
Expand your reach and donations through Arimathea promotions to 10,000+ Catholic families who are hungry to fund worthy causes.
