Aim Higher Foundation

The Aim Higher Foundation provides student-based, tuition-assistance scholarships so that more children in the twelve-county Twin Cities metro area can experience the life-changing benefits of a Catholic education. Since our founding in 2012, we have awarded over 19,000 scholarships. But thousands more are knocking on doors of K-8 Catholic schools. A growing number of families want access to the life-transforming benefits found uniquely in Catholic schools, yet they face financial barriers. They simply cannot afford tuition without assistance. 

Light the Path Forward! Make a Year-End Gift

When you make a gift to the Aim Higher Foundation, you are lighting a brighter path for future students like Emily Cendejas-Garcia, an Aim Higher Alum whose light, as the first college graduate of her family, shines so brightly in her proud family, her inspired Latino community, and in her construction management workplace. 

"The Aim Higher Scholarship opened the door for me. It gave me a chance to find my purpose - and now, to use that purpose every day." 

In the current school year, nearly 3,000 Aim Higher Scholars are learning and growing in the 80 Catholic schools we serve across the Twin Cities. Yet thousands more children are still waiting for the chance to begin their journey. 

Your 2025 Year-End Gift will help us support more scholars 2026.
