CWN Editor's Note: In an October 1 rescript, Pope Leo XIV approved the statutes of the Donum Missionis Foundation, a new entity resulting from the merger of the Domus Missionalis Foundation and Domus Urbaniana Foundation.

The new entity, endowed with 1 million euros ($1.12 million), will oversee the care and maintenance of the Pontifical Urban College of Propaganda Fide, the Pontifical Missionary College of St. Peter the Apostle, the Pontifical International Missionary College of St. Paul the Apostle, the Pontifical Missionary College of St. Joseph, the Pontifical International Missionary College Mater Ecclesiae, and the CIAM (International Center for Missionary Animation).
