The Fund was set up in 1927 as a result of an appeal launched by prominent Anglo-Catholic leaders of the time to provide for the training of men who had an undoubted vocation to the priesthood but who could not afford to pay for training. ACOCF continues today to maintain the Catholic tradition of its founders.
