title: De Rance Foundation
text: The De Rance Foundation was the world's largest Catholic charity until its dissolution in 1992. It was named for Armand Jean le Bouthillier de Rancé, the 17th-century abbot of the monastery at La Trappe, France. Begun in 1946 by Harry G. John, a grandson of Miller Brewing Company founder Frederick Miller, De Rance was worth $188 million in March 1983. By October 1984, the charity's value plummeted to $83 million as a result of Harry John's questionable expenditures and investments of its assets.
