TuitionCare is a unique opportunity for Saint Ephrem Catholic through the Foundation for Catholic Education. It's success has been proven over the last two years - SEC school families have already received over $1900 in tuition reduction grants!
As a parent of a student at St. Ephrem Catholic School, I want to thank the parishioners that participated last year and reinforce the importance of your continued participation in TuitionCare.
As Father Mike often says, "We are one family at St. Ephrem." This sentiment emphasizes the strength and unity we have as a parish. We all know that a Catholic education is about more than just academics; it’s about instilling values, fostering faith, and nurturing our children’s spiritual growth. At St. Ephrem, we are fortunate to have an environment where our kids learn not only math and science but also compassion, service, and the love of God.
However, we also recognize the financial challenges that come with providing this invaluable education. This is where TuitionCare becomes essential. TuitionCare is an opportunity to repurpose your state income tax dollars to support Catholic education, and last year, the program provided $1,000 back in tuition assistance to the families of every student. This is an incredible help to families that make financial sacrifices to send their children to St. Ephrem.
This year, TuitionCare expanded to 16 Catholic schools in the Archdiocese of Philadelphia. This means we must act to ensure that St. Ephrem remains a priority. We want to avoid having the Foundation move on to other schools instead of ours based on low participation or contribution numbers.
Every contribution makes a difference and will solidify the continued participation of St. Ephrem in this wonderful program that directly helps families afford to give their children a Catholic education.
Thank you for your time, your support, and your commitment to our children’s education.
