Catholic Schools Grant Criteria:

In an effort to make Catholic school education in the Diocese of Phoenix affordable, the highest priority for funding this category is tuition assistance; however, the Catholic Community Foundation may consider other programs as well.

General Grant Requirements:

1. Applicants must be a registered 501(c)(3) charity in Arizona.
2. Grant recipients or an agency representative must be present at the Grants Reception in the Fall in order to receive the grant.
3. Grant recipients must submit a letter of acknowledgement for grant funds received to the Catholic Community Foundation to be shared with its Board of Directors, Grants Committee, and others.
4. Grant recipients must consent to signing a photo/video release.

Catholic Schools Grant-Specific Requirements:

1. Applicants must provide a current list of the school’s Board of Directors and/or Advisory Board, including addresses, with their applications.
2. Applicants must submit the current year school budget summary on the provided template with their applications.

Please Note For All Grants:

1. Requests for funding of salaries and capital improvements do not qualify for grant monies.
2. Due to the finite amount of grant monies available, not all proposals can be funded.
3. Funding in the past does not guarantee continued funding.
4. Lack of funding in the past does not indicate that funding will not be possible in future years.
