About the Mary Foundation

The Mary Foundation is a 501(c)3 non-profit educational organization based in Ohio.

It was founded in 1991 by Bud Macfarlane to distribute extraordinarily affordable, high-quality Catholic materials.

Our goal is to evangelize as many people worldwide as quickly as possible with the infallible truths Jesus Christ reveals through His one, holy, catholic, and apostolic Church.

Through God's providential grace and the sacrifice of our supporters, tens of millions of people around the world have heard, read, worn, venerated, and distributed our many effective and life-changing tools for evangelization.

With no debt, a variety of free or at-cost gifts, and our rapidly-growing national prayer movement, our Principles of Conduct seem impossible, but we do the impossible every day.

We warmly encourage you to join our work today.
