CIRCLES OF FRIENDS OF THE FOUNDATION
The John Paul II Vatican Foundation has for many years successfully fostered an international community through the Circles of Friends of the Foundation operating around the world. These circles unite people who, inspired by the teaching of John Paul II, seek truth, beauty and the meaning of life. They are communities where tradition meets modernity, places for both creative dialogue and concrete action in the spirit of solidarity and mutual support.
Each Circle of Friends of the Foundation is a local community that organises meetings, cultural events and educational activities, promoting the values and carrying forward the legacy of St John Paul II in its region.
