Thousands of Arizona families desire a quality Catholic education for their children but struggle to afford the tuition. Catholic Education Arizona bridges this gap by offering need-based scholarships to underserved children, empowering families to choose the best education regardless of financial constraints.

“I was fortunate to have my son receive a scholarship from Catholic Education Arizona. I want to help as many families as possible receive the same gift of a Catholic education,” said Keli McCann. Keli’s personal experience now drives her fundraising efforts as Catholic Education Arizona’s Director of Development of the new donations and planned gifts division, Changing Lives with Legacy.

Why is it essential to make Catholic education affordable and attainable?

“Choosing a Catholic education is a decision that lasts a lifetime. Not only are students immersed in a faith-based education that is rooted in the teachings of Christ, but they receive a quality academic experience that develops the whole child,” said Keli.

What are the long-term benefits of ensuring Catholic education is accessible to all socioeconomic backgrounds?

“A Catholic education should be available for all families who desire to give their children a faith-based education,” Keli emphasized. “Contributing to Catholic Education Arizona can open the door to a new world for many children who will one day become future leaders. If you want to build a better world, look to supporting the future leaders.

“The Changing Lives with Legacy division provides a new avenue for members of our community to become stewards of others,” Keli said. Changing Lives with Legacy accepts donations and planned gifts such as bequests, IRA Charitable Rollovers, gifts of stock, and more! There are many ways to create future leaders through need-based scholarships. To learn more, visit CEAZ.GiftLegacy.com.
