Please join us for this year's Gaudeamus benefit gala, CEF's signature fundraising event, live and in-person at the Overland Park Convention Center on Saturday, October 23rd! Funds raised support Catholic school scholarships for students in poverty throughout the Archdiocese of Kansas City in Kansas.
Last year's Gaudeamus allowed CEF to provide over $2 million in scholarship funding to nearly 1,500 low-income students in the '20-'21 school year. Thanks to your support, seniors supported by CEF scholarships achieved a 100% graduation rate this spring. You can read more about the impact of CEF scholarships in this summer's newsletter. Word of this impact is spreading, and enrollment requests are surging - particularly among low-income families. Right now, nearly 200 students in poverty are waiting for a scholarship - and your support of this year's Gaudeamus can rewrite the future for a child in need.
