Dear Friends,

Happy Valentine’s to all our contributors and donors – we love you! We love you for the difference you make in underserved, disabled, and foster children’s lives. Because of you, we can provide life-changing tuition scholarships. We regularly receive thank you notes from our scholarship recipients, here is an excerpt from Cole, “I feel so blessed to attend a school where I can deepen my faith. Thank you for your generosity.” We know he is one of our future leaders!

Very exciting news for our organization this past month was when our Board of Director’s presented the Diocese of Phoenix’s Bishop Dolan a $5.5 million scholarship award check for Q3.  Pictured from right to left: Andrea Weeks, Fr. David Halm, Thomas Shellander, Bryan Brady, Nancy Padberg, Bishop John Dolan, Deb Preach, Kelley Tucker, Tom Brennan. Annually, we provide over $22 million in scholarship to our Catholic schools!

You can change lives with us at no additional cost to you, just by redirecting your AZ state tax liability!

The Individual Tax Credit deadline is April 15th for Tax Year 2025. You can contribute on-line, by mail or by phone. Find more information here.

The Arizona Low-Income and Disabled/Displaced Corporate Tax Credit commitment deadline is June 30. We are blessed to partner with 100 + corporate partners; if you have questions, call Jill in our office at 602-218-6542 or email her at jgossett@ceaz.org. We are blessed to be surrounded by your generosity and love!

We want to learn more about you! Your input lets us know what matters most to you when it comes to making Catholic education affordable and accessible for underserved families. If you have a moment, please answer a few short questions.

God Bless,

Nancy
