Innovest on Mission: Fellowship of Catholic University Students (FOCUS)

At Innovest, we provide investment advice to a range of nonprofit organizations. Each quarter, we showcase one of our nonprofit clients, and we are proud to feature the Fellowship of Catholic University Students (FOCUS) this quarter.

Founded by Curtis Martin in 1998, FOCUS aims to inspire and equip college students to become joyful missionaries of the Gospel. With a mission to “evangelize college and university students, inviting them to a relationship with Jesus Christ and the Catholic Church,” FOCUS actively engages with students on college campuses across the United States and beyond to foster a vibrant community of faith. FOCUS has expanded to over 170 college campuses, reaching thousands of students annually.

FOCUS empowers students to become leaders in their communities through impactful programs. The organization provides a range of programs, including Bible studies, retreats, and mission trips, which have been instrumental in helping students deepen their understanding of Catholic teachings and develop a solid spiritual foundation. In addition, FOCUS puts on an annual SEEK conference for thousands of college students, which features dynamic speakers and opportunities for spiritual growth throughout the week.
