By providing scholarships, Seeds of Hope gives families the choice to send their children to a Catholic K-8 school where spiritual, mental, academic and physical formation is provided. Seeds of Hope also strives to assist and sustain these Catholic communities which support families in all aspects of life as these grants allow for parent choice in education. The good performed by Catholic schools is undeniable, a mission to joyfully educate the whole person and form witnesses who will transform the world. Seeds of Hope continues to serve low-income, high minority populations, and the gift of a Catholic education is a blessing to these families.

Seeds of Hope offers “Hope Scholarships” ranging from $500 to $3,500 per student, depending on need. Any K-8 student at any Archdiocese of Denver K-8 Catholic school who meets Seeds of Hope’s household income eligibility guidelines is eligible to apply for tuition assistance. All families contribute to their children’s tuition which helps create a sense of pride and accountability.

As a continued service for Denver Catholic Schools, Seeds of Hope also continues to maintain the online Variable Tuition Program for participating schools, which gathers important data and information from families to help schools calculate affordable tuition.
