THE GOSPEL OF MARK TELLS US THAT JOSEPH WAS A RESPECTED MEMBER OF THE SANHEDRIN, THE HIGHEST JEWISH COURT AND ADMINISTRATIVE BODY. THEREFORE, JOSEPH WAS ONE OF THE LEADERS OF THE PEOPLE, A VERY WEALTHY MAN, AND THANKS TO HIS SOCIAL POSITION, HE WAS ONE OF THE FEW WHO COULD OBTAIN AN AUDIENCE WITH THE ROMAN GOVERNOR, PONTIUS PILATE. THIS SOCIAL AND POLITICAL POSITION UNDOUBTEDLY PROVED USEFUL FOR THE SPREAD OF CHRISTIANITY, BUT AT THE SAME TIME, IT PRESENTED A SIGNIFICANT BARRIER FOR JOSEPH TO APPROACH JESUS AND HIS DISCIPLES. IT WAS INDEED A LIMITATION TO HIS OWN CONVERSION.
Joseph of Arimathea Asset Management Foundation, aims to support Christian priests, monks, nuns, religious and secular missionaries, in their daily financial needs. It is a non-public and non-profit organization.
Foundation has been inspired by the biblical figure of Joseph of Arimathea, taking care about the Body of Jesus Christ. In a similar way, we want to take care about those who dedicated all their life to the Christian Church giving up one’s life for the evangelization and conversion of the world.
We believe that these people represent today the Body of Jesus Christ.
We are confident that those who are committed to helping the community and promoting spiritual growth should receive the highest support.
Through our foundation, our aim is to provide and assist these people with the resources they need to live fully concentrated on the core of their mission, focused on developing the spiritual lives of others.
We are aware of the economic difficulties faced by many priests, nuns, missionaries, and religious workers. We believe in the importance of their work and, therefore, provide financial support and assistance to help alleviate the burdens they might face. By reducing their financial worries, we help them focus on their spiritual and academic development and enable them to acquire the knowledge and skills necessary to achieve their goals.
We collaborate with organizations and religious communities that are effecting real change in the lives of individuals and communities. We work with them to identify and promote projects that address social, economic, and humanitarian needs. Through collaboration with institutions that share our values, we are able to assist those in need, upholding the teachings of Christ and the spirit of philanthropy.
Education is an essential part of personal and spiritual development. We support training opportunities for religious workers and missionaries to understand theological doctrines, develop pastoral care skills, and acquire leadership abilities. Through scholarships, grants, and partnerships with schools, we support access to quality education and training, providing spiritual leaders with the necessary tools to become the guides of their communities.
Having regards to the purposes of the Foundation, the Foundation shall ensure the occasional, short-term and/or long-term financial support of its beneficiaries, who dedicate their life to popularization of Christianity.
By helping people who dedicated their life to the Christianity’s values, the Foundation works to support spiritual growth, strengthen communities and contribute to people’s well-being.
The Foundation works internationally, recognizing that the need for support and guidance crosses national borders. By recognizing diversity and inclusion, the Foundation fosters an environment that celebrates the richness of diversity, culture and faith.
Through responsible management and financial management, our foundation ensures that its resources are allocated efficiently and effectively for maximum impact. By continually evaluating and adjusting its strategy, the Foundation can adapt and respond to the changing needs and challenges in the communities it serves.

„At that time, Jesus said to his apostles:'As you go, proclaim this message: The kingdom of heaven has come near. Heal the sick, raise the dead, cleanse those who have leprosy, drive out demons. Freely you have received; freely give. Do not get any gold or silver or copper to take with you in your belts; no bag for the journey, or extra shirt, or sandals, or a staff; for the worker is worth his keep.”
