GCatholic.org is an nonprofit organization the provides comprehensive information about the Catholic Church[2] via its online database of bishops and dioceses of the Roman Catholic Church and Eastern Catholic Churches. The website is not officially sanctioned by the Church. It is run as a private project by Gabriel Chow, journalist for Salt + Light Television, in Toronto. It also provides information about the performance of the Catholic Church itself in different countries and territories and provides biographical information on current and former bishops of each diocese, such as dates of birth, ordination, and (where applicable) death. When created, the site name was Giga-Catholic Information due to the fact that there are around 1 billion Catholics in the world (billion = giga).[3] It is used as a source for information on Catholic bishops and diocese, current and historical, by various news organizations[4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11] and authors.
