Our Philosophy
The “Follow
Me Foundation, Inc.” a not-for-profit 501©(3) organization, seeks to follow God’s command to share our blessings,
gifts and talents with the world, as exemplified by Jesus Christ: ”’Come, you who are blessed by my Father; take
your inheritance, the kingdom prepared for you since the creation of the world. For I was hungry and you game me something
to eat, I was thirsty and you game me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in, I needed clothes and you
clothed me, I was sick and you looked after me, I was in prison and you came to visit me.’ (Matthew 25:34-36) Using Catholic-based initiatives to serve ALL people regardless
of faith or circumstances, the Follow Me Foundation offers tangible life-needs such as food and clothing as well as educational
and spiritual opportunities to inspire and provide life-affirming values to those who need them most. Ultimately, it is more
then just a biblically based philosophy; it is, in every respect, our MISSION.
Our Mission
Our mission is to
provide an atmosphere of love, compassion and understanding for those on their spiritual journey and to uphold with dignity,
respect and honor the right God Himself has given all people. Realizing that each person is a child of God and that as His
servants we are to care for his children, The Follow Me Foundation attempts to reach out in the name of Christ to those who
are in need. No one is ever turned away because of lack of funds.
Our GoalIn fulfilling our God-given mission and to support future programs
which meet our spiritual philosophy, The Foundation realizes that, while there is much more work to be done, “With God
all this are possible”. (Mk 10:27) To continue to minister
to our brothers’ and sisters’ spiritual needs, our current goal is to raise the necessary funds to purchase a
tract of land in North East, PA on which to build “The Heart of Holiness”, a working organic farm/retreat center
aimed at stimulating the spirit of God within us all. The greater part of The Foundation’s Funding comes from individuals
by way of donation, pledge or memorial, with grants from other sources and special events accounting for the rest.
