SCIAF is the Scottish Catholic International Aid Fund. We are the official aid agency of the Catholic Church in Scotland.


Inspired by the Gospel, and guided by Catholic Social Teaching, we reach out with love to our global neighbours in need, regardless of gender, class, race or religion.


We believe in giving people in need a hand up, not a hand out. We help people provide for themselves and their families, creating hope for the future.


We help the poorest free themselves from poverty by equipping them with the skills and tools they need to survive and thrive.
