Shepherds needs to raise over $600,000 a year to underwrite our three-pronged program of tuition support, supplemental programs, and our mentor development and coaching program for our 62 Shepherds students.
This funding comes from a variety of sources, including Shepherds mentors, Board of Directors, many individual donors and very significantly numerous foundations. We recognize three foundations this month who provided Shepherds with extraordinary grants recently.
In December, Shepherds received its largest-ever grant of $120,000 from the Elizabeth M. Pfriem Foundation. The grant will support three, “Elizabeth M. Pfriem Scholars” in the Class of 2026 at Kolbe Cathedral for the next four years.
We also received generous awards from the Bedford Family Social Responsibility Fund, Bucks Creek Foundation, and Near and Far Aid, during the last several weeks of 2022. Thank you to these donors and the many others for your commitment to and support of Shepherds mission.
If you know of any foundations or corporations that might be interested in supporting Shepherds, please let Jane MacDonald know at jmacdonald@shepherdsmentors.org.
