«That all may be one» (Jn. 17,21)
We were born for these words, for unity, to give a contribution to its realization in the world. Chiara Lubich

Economy of Communion
Economy of Communion in Freedom
Companies on every continent are involved in the Economy of Communion.
Participating business owners freely choose to distribute their profits for three equally important purposes:
- Retain earnings to grow the business, and thus create new jobs, and to increase efficiency, and thus improve profitability - all to the benefit of those in need
- Directly help people in need, beginning with those who share the spirit animating the Economy of Communion
- Spread the "Culture of Giving" stemming from the spirituality of unity so that more and more people will learn to freely participate in the communion characterizing the movement

Almost twenty years later, Benedict XVI cited the Economy of Communion in Caritas in Veritate as a promising form of intermediate activity between for-profit business and classic non-profit institutions."
