Why Support Cathedral
Transform the lives of Boston-area youth
Your support of our mission directly and powerfully transforms the lives of the scholars who are the recipients of inspirational generosity.
Through our annual Cathedral Fund, the Adopt-A-Student Foundation Gala or Golf Tournament, the Cathedral Now, Cathedral Forever Campaign, or through scholarship endowments, your ongoing generosity allows us to provide the programs, faculty and staff, and support necessary for our scholars to thrive on an annual basis.
Close the Opportunity Gap
Your annual gift to the Cathedral Fund directly contributes to closing the opportunity gap for deserving and motivated young scholars.
For decades, Cathedral has been proud to serve a mission that creates access and opportunity for students and families who have traditionally been underserved. Your annual support of the Cathedral Fund plays a transformational role in ensuring that the barriers historically faced by so many of our families are alleviated at Cathedral. All students deserve a life-changing education, and with your support of the Cathedral Fund, Cathedral is empowered to continue our longstanding tradition of doing our part to close the opportunity gap.
Expand Access to Transformational Education
The average cost of a private high school education in the Boston area is $25,000 – a daunting number for most families. In most private schools, tuition covers approximately 80% of annual costs. At Cathedral, less than 10% of our revenue comes from tuition. The most a family pays is $7,850 – and in most cases, far less.
That means we rely on your annual generosity to ensure we can provide life-changing education to families at a price they can afford. Learn more about our financial model.
Provide Life-Changing Opportunities
Whether it’s for a scholar who is the first in their family to pursue a college, or even high school education, or a family who has experienced job loss, trauma, or insurmountable life challenges, financially contributing to Cathedral’s mission opens pathways of opportunity that would otherwise remain closed for amazing, brilliant, talented and motivated young leaders.
Create Sustaining Change
Our $60 million Cathedral Now, Cathedral Forever campaign is building a sustaining endowment that ensures the longevity of our mission. Cathedral is here to stay, and will continue to provide transformational education to Boston-area youth for generations to come!
