The Catholic Education Foundation believes that all families who seek high-quality, faith-based K-12 education should be able to access it, regardless of their financial situation. We’ve seen the difference it makes - especially for low-income children in rural and inner city communities. And thanks to the generosity of our community, CEF scholarships are supporting students at 22 schools across the Archdiocese of Kansas City in Kansas this year alone, all serving communities experiencing significant financial need.

The outcomes are clear: CEF scholarships are changing lives.

My faith and education are very important to me, and you give me the opportunity to learn at a faith based school. You don't know how incredibly thankful I am to be at this school. In return, I will remember you in my prayers.

"Dear CEF Donor,

Thank you for the great amount of support. It makes people into successful people, and frowns into great, big, and bright smiles. You give people the chance to go to a Catholic school. You give people the chance to take huge steps closer to God. 

I get to study the Bible stores. Recently, I've gotten to study the Rosary! Also, I get to go to Mass! Speaking of Mass, our Catholic school lets us do parts of the Mass. I got a Mass part!

Your friend, 

Judah"

Thank you from A Mater Dei 8th grader

Dear CEF,

Thank you for all of your support with the schools. We really appreciate how  much you do for us. I really enjoy going to a Catholic school. Some of the things we learn here we couldn’t get at a public school. Our school helps us to strive for excellence, do our best, and respect others. We are also blessed with the opportunity to learn about God and go to Church. I love the experiences we get here. Thanks again for your help.
