The mission of the McMahon Parater Foundation is to provide scholarships and
financial assistance for students seeking Catholic education, to increase
professional development opportunities for teachers and administrators and to
strengthen Catholic schools and their programs.
The McMahon Parater Foundation was established in 2008 as a 501(c)(3)
organization to sustain and enhance the future of Catholic schools in the
Diocese of Richmond. The Foundation
began with an endowment provided by Bishop Francis X. DiLorenzo.
In the Foundation’s inaugural year, 2008-2009, nearly 650 students in parish,
private, and regional schools in the Diocese of Richmond will receive over
$200,000 in tuition assistance. These need-based scholarships were awarded
utilizing income criteria established by FACTS, an independent tuition
management company.
Applications for the 2009-2010 school year will be accepted no later than May 1,
2009. Application may be made
through the student’s school.
Your support of the McMahon Parater Foundation will help to ensure that
increasing numbers of deserving students have access to Catholic faith,
tradition, and academic
excellence. Once our website is
expanded, you will be provided the convenience of donating on-line.
