Who We Are

Catholic Alumni Clubs International (CACI) is an association of 15 Catholic Alumni Clubs located throughout the United States.

CACI’s mission: encourage the development of local Catholic Alumni Clubs, facilitate communication between local clubs, represent the interests of single Catholics at a national level, and host its National Convention.

A Catholic Alumni Club (CAC) is a local organization of single Catholic professional men and women. Each CAC provides a friendly setting for Catholic singles to meet and develop friendships with other Catholic singles at a variety of enjoyable, interesting, and fulfilling activities.

Travel

CACI National Convention & Regional Weekends

About CACI Travel

Each year, several travel opportunities are available exclusively to CAC members. Join fellow CACers throughout the US, for interesting tours, dinner-dances, liturgies, seminars, after-hours parties, and more.

National Convention

All CAC members in good standing are invited to the annual CACI National Convention, a weeklong gathering of CAC members from around the US. A varying North American location of particular interest to CAC travelers is selected each year. We’ve been sponsoring a National Convention every year since 1960!

Begin each day with breakfast. Then join a sightseeing tour, swim in the hotel’s pool, or take a leisurely stroll around the grounds. Later in the afternoon, attend a celebration of the Mass. Afterwards, enjoy a cocktail hour and catered dinner, followed by a dance. Close out the night with an after-hours party. Do all this while sharing the warmth of companionship and good cheer with fellow CAC Catholic singles.

CACI also conducts its annual business meeting at the Convention and holds its election of officers.

For many CACers, this Annual Vacation is the highlight of the year! You have to check it out and experience it for yourself.

Regional Weekends

Regional Weekends provide additional vacation opportunities for CACers beyond the National Convention. CAC chapters in a specific region of the country host a weekend full of activities of interest to Catholic singles. All CAC members may attend any Regional Weekend.

Scholarship Fund

CACI is happy to help deserving individuals advance their education, thanks to a gift from the estate of former CACI President Ed Webb, and from donations collected at the CACI National Convention and Regional Weekends as well as other supportive individuals.

Most CAC members are college graduates and view education as a positive factor in shaping lives. Thus, as a charitable endeavor, CACI has established the Catholic Alumni Clubs International Scholarship Fund, officially named the Edward T. Webb Memorial Fund.

Annually, each of the three CACI Regions directs the Fund to provide financial aid at a university, high school, elementary school, or other educational institution, which is selected by vote of that Region’s member clubs. Each member Club may nominate one school. Anyone wishing to recommend a school for consideration should contact the president of the Catholic Alumni Club in the geographic area of the school.

History of the Fund

Ed Webb was the first president of the association that is now Catholic Alumni Clubs International. In his will, Ed bequeathed money to a CACI Scholarship Fund. Ed's will was opened in 2005. The following year, at the 2006 National Convention, the CACI Board of Directors established the Edward T. Webb Memorial Fund. CACers attending the Convention donated the first contributions into the Fund. Shortly thereafter, the Fund received a distribution from Ed's estate. Since 2007, the Fund has been annually assisting many students through scholarship awards to a number of educational institutions.

How is the Fund governed?

The Fund is directed by an Administrator working in association with two Supervisors. The CACI President appoints all three, and may serve as one of the two Supervisors. These appointments run concurrent with the President's term of office.
