Enrollment is projected to increase at many of our CEF schools next year as more and more families grow concerned about the values their children are learning. As inflation continues to rise, so does the need for tuition assistance – particularly among low-income families.

Right now, more than 200 students are waiting for a scholarship for the 2023-24 school year.

For at-risk students, a high-quality education offers a pathway to opportunities and resources to break the cycle of poverty and rewrite the future for themselves and their families. We’re thrilled to share that this spring CEF scholarship recipients achieved a 100% graduation rate!

The class of 2023 includes 47 CEF scholarship recipients. Of those students, 63% plan to continue their education at a 4-year college or university, 27% plan to attend community college and nearly 9% are entering the workforce with confidence and purpose.

Put Catholic education within reach of every student.
