For Families

A Catholic education
for your child — made possible.

If a faithful, classical Catholic education has felt out of reach, it may be closer than you think. The Kolbe & Castello Fund will offer scholarships to Kentucky families — so every child can be formed in faith, truth, and goodness.

Most families qualify

A door that opens wider than you'd think

Scholarships are available to families earning up to 300% of the area's median income. In the Metro Louisville area, that's a household income under roughly $289,800 — which means about 90% of families are eligible. Your child must be eligible to enroll in a Kentucky K–12 school.

Every child belongs here

Many families have been told, in ways spoken and unspoken, that a Catholic education isn't for them. We believe the opposite — that every child, whatever their abilities or means, can be formed in faith, truth, and goodness.

Welcoming the families others overlook isn't a side program for us. It's the reason we exist, and it's why our patroness is St. Margaret of Castello.
