I don't think so, usually it would be stated very clearly on their website. Are you confusing it with Trocaire?

Why?

Their website doesn't give any indication that they are, which would be odd if they were. Religious charities tend not to be secretive about it.

Thanks, yes couldn't find anything on their website.

I don't want to donate to a charity that endorses a religion.

Cheers

TBH I'd give nothing to a charity run IMO as a personal quango by that FF hack Barry Andrews.
