I keep hearing this is too good to be true. But it is true! Once it sinks in, people say “this is a no-brainer”!!!

I cannot understand why a faithful Catholic, and for that matter – anyone, would not use their tax dollars towards helping deserving children and their families obtain Catholic education. It doesn’t cost them anything; they get their entire contribution back and get a charitable deduction as a bonus for something they technically never contributed. Others are getting it, why don’t Catholics?

GRACE has had a positive impact on the St. Jude School community. The redirected tax dollars have helped seven children enjoy Catholic education – an opportunity that may not have existed before GRACE.

“Thanks to your support, we all win – you, Blessed Trinity High School, but most of all the students who might never have had the opportunity for a Catholic education without your support of GRACE Scholars.”

Catholic education is one of the greatest gifts you can provide a child. Beyond excellence in education, children have the opportunity to grow spiritually and deepen their relationship with God. The GRACE Scholars program allows for the doors of the Catholic school to be open to children that would not have the financial means to access this type of education. Through the generosity of the St. Ann’s community and GRACE Scholars six students are currently enrolled at Our Lady of Mercy Catholic High School and nine more will join our community next year. These are students who wouldn’t be here without the support from the St. Ann parish. Our Lady of Mercy Catholic High School is not a parish school and therefore is not directly supported by one particular parish, so your support is appreciated and needed even more. The students that attend Mercy as GRACE Scholars have a much better chance of attending the college of their choice due to the college preparatory environment of the school. On behalf of those students, their families, and the entire Mercy community, thank you St. Ann’s!

Dear G.R.A.C.E.,
Thanks a ton for the G.R.A.C.E. scholarship that was awarded to our son. He is thrilled to go back to Our Lady of Assumption school. My wife and I are so relieved that he won’t have to go back to a public school. Our middle school is not the best. This is a wonderful program and a very very helpful gesture. The scholarship is going to help us tremendously.
