1974-1990 : The beginnings

Fondacio was born in France in 1974 in the spirit of the Second Vatican Council and the grace of the Charismatic Renewal, with Jean-Michel Rousseau and his wife Jane, and some young people gathering around them in Poitiers (France).

At the beginning the activity was essentially oriented towards the formation of young adults, evangelization and the deployment of lay vocations in the middle of the world to bring "something new". Fondacio was quickly solicited by the Church, in other cities in France and towards other horizons, to develop its know-how.

en years after its birth, Fondacio is already present in many countries: France, Belgium, Chile, Malaysia, Philippines, Togo, Benin, Burkina Faso.
