About The Inner-City Scholarship Fund

One of the greatest gifts we can give our children is the gift of a sound education. The Catholic Schools Foundation, Inc., through its Inner-City Scholarship Fund (ICSF), grants scholarship assistance annually to needy students attending primary or secondary Catholic schools in the Archdiocese of Boston. Scholarship assistance is awarded to students without regard to race, color, gender or creed. Applications for scholarships are available at local Catholic schools.

In school year 2006-2007, the Inner-City Scholarship Fund provided almost $6,500,000 in scholarship support to 5,545 students. Along with this remarkable effort, donors like you also helped provide funding for the Adopt-a-School program, improved teaching materials, our counseling effort and for technology programs. In addition, a terrific advertising campaign -- featuring Troy Brown of the New England Patriots -- was made possible by a marketing grant. In total, $8,187,764.98 was granted to support deserving students and enrich our programs.
