“We are indeed grateful to all of those who have helped us to bring the relics of Padre Pio to so many faithful in these past two years. The most important fact, in our opinion, was that the majority of those attending the tour of the relics of Padre Pio would never be able to travel to San Giovanni Rotondo or Pietrelcina to visit the places where our Saint was born, lived, and died. It has, therefore, become a mission for us to enable these faithful devotees to have a 'spiritual encounter' with Padre Pio.”
--President and CEO Luciano Lamonarca

The Saint Pio Foundation is a non-profit charity organization dedicated to the promotion of the spiritual charism of Saint Pio of Pietrelcina, universally acclaimed as one of the most venerated contemporary saints of the Catholic Church.

The foundation is open to those who want to learn more about the life and holiness of Saint Pio and who wish to live in accord with his counsels for our life in Christ in the Church.

The overarching goal of the Saint Pio Foundation is to promote the awareness of Saint Pio and his charism nationally and internationally by working with institutions ?and ??individuals who share the same vision to serve “those in need of relief of suffering.”

Funds raised by the Saint Pio Foundation are used to provide grants to Catholic healthcare, educational, social, religious, and cultural partner organizations. As partners, they use their facilities and influence to advance the public’s knowledge of the legacy and importance of Saint Pio.
