TODAY IS PETER LYNCH DAY!
In honor of Peter Lynch Day today, May 11th, the Catholic Schools Foundation is proud to announce $300K in additional high school scholarships for the '23-'24 school year.
These guaranteed scholarships for up to four years recognize and celebrate Peter Lynch’s tremendous commitment and impact on Catholic education. Peter Lynch Day was announced at the 33rd Annual Building Minds Scholarship Fund Celebration on April 27, 2023 when Peter was the evening’s honoree.
All Catholic high schools in the Archdiocese of Boston are eligible to apply on behalf of in-need students whose lives will be changed by a Catholic education. The new scholarship recipients will join over 700 other Catholic Schools Foundation scholarship recipients at Catholic high schools in the greater Boston area.
This scholarship opportunity will provide a life-changing, high-quality education to deserving students who would not be able to attend a Catholic high school without support.
As Nelvin De La Rosa, a Central Catholic High School class of 2023 graduate shared at this year’s celebration, "I would not be where I am today, about to graduate, and have these great college choices without the CSF scholarship… and everyone in this room tonight: thank you for changing my life!"
