Scholarship Breakfast

At our April breakfast we award Essay Scholarships ranging from $1,000 to $2,500 to rising freshman totaling $30,000. These scholarships are funded completely by the generosity of our Leading Sponsors.

We also award Needs Based Scholarships to Elementary Schools. These are based on financial need and are sent directly to the Principals. These funds come from the donations at our Gala and $10,000 from the John C Grimberg Company. In 2022 we raised $58,000.

In addition we give Grants to any school that applies. They buy library books, iPads, plant trees, whatever they need. This year we gave 23 Grants of $1,500 to each School totaling $35,000. These funds come from the profits of the Gala.

This is a great event as we get to see our mission of supporting Catholic Schools come alive. Attendance is 120-150.

Youth Coaches Hall of Fame Breakfast

The CBN-MC Youth Coaches Hall of Fame Awards Ceremony is a memorable occasion, honoring dedicated individuals who have coached for at least five years in CYO and other sports programs. More than twenty individuals have been inducted into the Hall of Fame.
