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.

We believe Catholic schools provide an education that is second to none. Catholic schools offer an academically-focused valued-based, and spiritually enriching education. They empower children with a higher purpose as they prepare for high school and a higher calling as they grow into leaders of their families, our Church, and our community. 

Since 2012, we have awarded more than 16.000 scholarships—worth more than $15 million—to children to attend 80 different Catholic schools serving grades K-8 in the Archdiocese of St. Paul and Minneapolis. 

The Aim Higher Scholarship is a $1,000, student-based scholarship awarded to K-8 students from families with demonstrated financial need. Once a scholarship is awarded and as long as the need remains, the student will cotninue to receive support through 8th grade, providing families financial stability and peace of mind.  Learn more: https://aimhigherfoundation.org/
