The Raskob Foundation is an independent private Catholic Family Foundation that makes grants for projects and programs associated with the Catholic Church. The origin of the Raskob Foundation is the story of two people, John J. and Helena S. Raskob and their dedication to God, each other, their children and to the Catholic Church.

The Raskob Foundation has as its purpose to engage in such exclusively religious, charitable, literary and educational activities as will aid the Roman Catholic Church and institutions and organizations identified with it.

"Go ahead and do things,
The bigger the better, if your fundamentals are sound.
Avoid procrastination.
Do not quibble for an hour over things which might be decided in minutes.
However, if the issue at stake is large, stay as long as the next man,
But go ahead and do things."
- John J. Raskob
