concerned about Opus Dei??? check out this site
http://www.odan.org

....

The Opus Dei Awareness Network, Inc. (ODAN) was founded in 1991 to meet the growing demand for accurate information about Opus Dei and to provide education, outreach and support to people who have been adversely affected by Opus Dei.

ODAN challenges many of Opus Dei's Questionable Practices because of the way they affect an individual's personal freedom, choices and family life.

Since 1991, ODAN has been in contact with countless individuals, families, the secular and religious press, clergy, religious, cult awareness organizations, campus ministers, home-schooling parents and more.

ODAN is a worldwide community of people who have had painful experiences as a result of their association with Opus Dei.

Opus Dei-Affiliated Foundations

Below are two tables. The first table lists Opus Dei-affiliated foundations in the United States. Many are strategically located near prestigious schools including MIT, Northeastern, Boston University, University of Notre Dame, UCLA, Colombia, Harvard, Boston College, Princeton, Marquette, University of Illinois, Brown University, Georgetown University, Rice University, UC Berkelely, Stanford University, University of San Francisco, St. Louis University, American University, and more. To access the financial information for the U.S. foundations, click on the foundation, which is linked to Guidestar, then click on the IRS 990 forms. The assets listed are primarily from the 2001 IRS 990 forms, but a few are from 2000 or 2002.

The second table lists sites affiliated with Opus Dei outside the United States. No financial information is available about these sites.

Note that neither of the tables is comprehensive. To the best of our knowledge, this information is accurate. If you have any corrections or additions, please contact us at odan@odan.org.

In order to better understand this list of Opus Dei-affiliated foundations, please read Escriva's Empire in the United States by Sharon Clasen.
