The Power of the St. Michael Scholarship

Be a lifeline for students in need. Your donation ensures that financial struggles don’t stand in the way of a Franciscan education.

The St. Michael Scholarship provides critical support to students struggling to stay at Franciscan due to financial hardship. Often, just a few thousand dollars is all that stands between them and the ability to continue their education and spiritual growth. This life-changing aid ensures that financial burdens don’t stand in the way of God’s plans for these students.

Like Anne, who worked six days a week at a fast-food job and babysat in her spare time but still couldn’t afford to return—until the St. Michael Scholarship made it possible.

Or Tom, who faced the heartbreak of his mother’s aggressive cancer diagnosis and thought he’d have to leave—until this scholarship allowed him to stay.

And Harry, whose $3,000 shortfall nearly ended his college education—until the St. Michael Scholarship kept his dream alive.

These are just three of the more than 200 students who received this scholarship last year, each one given the chance to remain at Franciscan and follow God’s call. Your gift is more than financial aid—it’s a future secured, a calling answered, and a life transformed. Every gift helps keep them in the classroom, the chapel, and the community where God is shaping their future.

Please keep these students in your prayers and, if you’re able, make a gift today.
