Building A Stronger Future For The Next Generation
Join us to provide educational options for Philadelphia students and their families through scholarships to strong, safe tuition-based private schools and other family-oriented programs
Access To Quality Education, Regardless Of Zip Code
The Pre-K-8th grade years are crucial for students to foster their cognitive abilities, build social behavior, and develop the skills needed to succeed and Philadelphia students deserve access to strong schools. Through philanthropic gifts and EITC/OSTC tax credit giving, CSFP provides academic scholarships for under-resourced families who are looking for alternatives to underperforming schools.
You can provide a child with access to a quality educational foundation today.
CSFP’s scholarship recipients’ median household annual income is just under $41,000 with 97% of families indicating employment for at least one member of the household.
CSFP scholarships give students and families stability, committing to support students through 8th grade and providing scholarships for all eligible students in a family.
Addressing Educational Disparities In Philadelphia
We provide supplemental programs, workshops, and support to families, making CSFP’s program unique, need-based, impactful, and diverse.
With 20+ years of experience, CSFP has perfected scholarship administration and continues to evaluate and improve our program offerings to support the whole family.
Need-Based
Impactful
Scholarships change lives! One in four Pre-K-8th grade students attending private school in Philadelphia receives a CSFP scholarship. By empowering families to make the best educational decisions for their children, more Philly Kids can achieve long-term economic and social success. CSFP’s Breaking Barriers Campaign is dedicated to breaking barriers to quality education by providing more scholarships each year and carrying scholarships through 8th grade.
Inclusive
Our families reflect the racial, ethnic, and cultural demographics of the City of Philadelphia. CSFP partner schools offer varied curricula, including religious or non-religious, Montessori, or skill-related teaching; as well as before and after school care and extracurricular activities.
Breaking Barriers Campaign
CSFP scholarships and programs open doors to quality education for Philly Kids. CSFP has launched the Breaking Barriers campaign to raise $100 million to increase the number of scholarships offered, provide more support through additional program offerings, and build a sustainable organization dedicated to helping Philadelphia families.
