Since the creation of the Emmaus Road Scholarship Fund in 2022, generous donors have contributed nearly $40,000 to support St Cecilia students. These gifts have directly helped families access a strong, faith-filled Catholic education – one that changes lives.

Did you know the EdChoice Scholarship does not cover the full cost to educate a student at St. Cecilia Elementary? The difference is paid for by the students’ families or by financial aid given from the Parish. The Emmaus Road Scholarship Fund helps bridge that gap in tuition, ensuring finances never stand in the way of a student’s Catholic education.

Through the Emmaus Road Scholarship Fund, Ohio taxpayers can reallocate their state tax dollars directly toward scholarships for St Cecilia students. In other words, instead of sending those dollars to the state, you can choose to send them to our school at no additional cost to you. This program offers a 100% Ohio state tax credit (up to $750 for individuals or $1,500 for couples filing jointly), and every dollar stays right here in our community directly benefiting St Cecilia students.

To learn more about this scholarship program, or to make a gift to the fund, please visit www.emmausroadscholarship.org. Be sure to select “St Cecilia School, Columbus” as your designated school, if making a donation. Thank you for prayerfully considering a gift this year. Your participation makes a difference for our students, our school, and our shared mission of faith in education!
