GAMALIEL FOUNDATION DECEIVES CATHOLIC FUNDING AGENCY
The Reform CCHD Now Coalition (RCN) Uncovers Fraud and Deception By Network of Grantees Receiving Catholic Funds
WASHINGTON, DC – The 24 member Reform CCHD Now Coalition (RCN) released its latest report on organizations receiving funds from the Catholic Campaign for Human Development (CCHD). The 2012 report reveals that one of the CCHD’s longest-running grant recipients, the Gamaliel Foundation, attempted to deceive the CCHD regarding its relationship with an organization promoting homosexuality.
Beginning in 2010, RCN has investigated organizations receiving funds from the CCHD, reporting on grantees that promote abortion, homosexuality, birth control and Marxism. Documented with screen captures and web links, the latest report (www.reformcchdnow.com) details 72 grantees for 2011-2012 violating CCHD guidelines and Catholic moral teaching, specifically on these grounds.
Among the grantees profiled in the report are 20 affiliates of the Gamaliel Foundation. According to the report, the Gamaliel Foundation listed its membership with the Fair Immigration Reform Movement (FIRM) on its own website.
“In 2010, FIRM publically stated its organizational intent to link homosexuality with immigration reform, and as a member, Gamaliel’s voice was added to this public statement” said Michael Hichborn, spokesman for RCN. “We gave this information to CCHD directors, and they began their own investigation.”
“We received several communications from diocesan CCHD directors indicating that National CCHD had a copy of a letter Gamaliel allegedly sent to FIRM in May of 2010, cutting all ties with them,” Hichborn said. “However, upon further investigation, RCN found proof that Gamaliel was still a member of FIRM in 2011 and 2012.”
Contained in the RCN 2012 report are screen captures taken from Gamaliel’s website of several FIRM membership documents dated 2011, as well as meeting minutes from a December 2011 FIRM conference call. The meeting minutes show that Gamaliel’s president participated in the call, and indicate that Gamaliel was nominated for the steering committee for the year 2012.
“Either the letter Gamaliel provided to CCHD was outdated or it was fake,” said Hichborn. “Whatever the case, the Gamaliel Foundation has revealed an apparent willingness to lie in order to keep Catholic funds.”
Obama is tied to Gamaliel family. I found it in 2008. They are dangerous.
Obama and Gamaliel’s Freak Show: Faith Hijacking Strategy
CCHD gets the “wool pulled over it’s eyes” pretty often it seems.
Wow....I was reading through the report and saw that the Syracuse Federal Cooperative Credit Union got a CCHD grant. SFCCU’s CEO was the Socialist Party vice presidential nominee in 1988 and the SFCCU gave to Planned Parenthood recently. Way to go CCHD....great use of Catholic funds. WTF.

Seems so.
Oh boy, this report is making me sick. Now I’m reading about a $50,000 CCHD grant to a group called the DC Grassroots Empowerment Project. This grantee was promoting a guide for women giving advice on how to successfully prostitute themselves and carry drugs without getting caught by the police. Really?
Terrible stuff. Is there a CCHD number we can call or something? When is the next CCHD collection supposed to be?
The collection is the Sunday before Thanksgiving in most dioceses.
The CCHD Executive Director’s phone number is 202-541-3367 according to the USCCB website.
I lost a lot of my Obama’s research from 2008 but Obama was heavily involved with Gamaliel and they were a sinister almost mafia like organization that helped Obama climb in politics. I would never forget that name. I am sure others here have links too.
You know this that Obama joined the socialist party in Chicago and they helped him get elected as senator?
Good find by the way.
If you have a ping list for CCHD please put me on it. (If you don’t have one, please start one!)
