Thank You, Matthews Children's Foundation!

Posted on October 13, 2015 in News

Over the past 8 years, the Matthews Children’s Foundation has funded 12 CEF scholarships, allowing 12 children living in poverty to attend a CEF school. This support, made possible in partnership with Porter Funeral Homes, has helped families realize their dream of a Catholic education while preparing students for higher educational attainment.

The academic outcomes of CEF students are significant: 98.7% graduate from high school, compared to 70% of their peers at the neighborhood high school just 3 blocks away. In addition, 98% of CEF graduates attend college, compared to only 33% of graduates from the nearby neighborhood school.

Matthews Children’s Foundation is funded by Matthews International. CEF is very grateful to the Matthews Children’s Foundation and Porter Funeral Homes for their support of the students we serve! Together, we are positively impacting the lives of children living in poverty!

Put Catholic education within reach of every student.
