NETWORK educates, organizes, and lobbies for economic and social transformation. What makes NETWORK unique is our historic founding by Catholic Sisters in 1972 and our modern combination of both professional lobbyists in Washington and members who lobby as constituents for economic and social transformation in their communities.

Our Annual Membership Fee to NETWORK Lobby is $50 (and above) or $20-$49 for seniors, students, or anyone living on a fixed income. You can donate to NETWORK Lobby [501(c)(4)] or NETWORK Advocates [501(c)(3)], either will entitle you to an annual membership.

We are grateful for any additional contributions you make throughout your membership year. These additional gifts, as well as your membership fees, fulfill our mission.

Because NETWORK Lobby lobbies the federal government, contributions you make to NETWORK Lobby are not tax-deductible. If you wish to make a tax-deductible gift to support our shared vision, click here to donate to NETWORK Advocates.

“I wanted to be able to advocate for Catholic Social Justice issues with confidence –  I didn’t have the knowledge or expertise to know what things/bill in Congress to support or not. I chose to use the expertise of the NETWORK Justice educated persons.”

“I am motivated by the fact that NETWORK’s stance is through the lens of Catholic social justice and intersects with other faith traditions in carrying out its work.   I think it is critical that the Catholic faith tradition has an organization such as NETWORK where the Catholic moral voice is proclaimed. This has been consistently demonstrated through Network’s lobbying and education in these critical social justice issues.”

“You lobby for values that touch my heart.”

“I was inspired by the Sisters and Staff at NETWORK who have our country and its’ people in their best interest and do all that they can to make U.S. Congress move to care for ALL.  There is an inspiring spirit in all of you that moves me to ACTION!”
