Newman Ministry is a nonprofit organisation founded in 2009 that supports Catholic students in the United States during their transition from high school to college. Its central mission is to connect these students to campus ministries and local faith communities. The organisation operates across a national network of 426 campus ministry partnerships, reaching 585 college campuses, 2,000 parishes, and 116 dioceses. Since its inception, it has connected over 600,000 students to ministries.
The organisation's technical work centres on several digital products designed to support this mission. These include Newman Connection, a platform that links students to campus ministries; Called, a community management tool built for churches and ministries; and Newman Student Housing, which develops faith-centered living spaces on campuses. These products provide the infrastructure to scale the organisation's outreach and community-building efforts.
As a technology team operating within the nonprofit, education, and religious sectors, the work involves building and maintaining platforms that facilitate large-scale connection and community management for a specific user base. The environment is defined by a stated goal to rebuild faith communities and develop future Catholic leadership.
