We are pleased to feature our partnership with St. Francis Xavier School, where we have been allotting scholarships for the use of their students. Scholarships have been made available for students with a qualifying disability as well as siblings of such students where policy permits. Providing scholarships from the Children First Education Fund has been made possible by the Special Needs Opportunity Scholarship Program of Utah. This program allows donors to receive a 100% tax credit for their donation with no individual limit on donations, but there is a first come, first serve state cap on the available tax credits (currently approx. $6m). Join with us today in providing scholarships for children with disabilities. #CFEfund #educationaladvocacy #scholarship #bettereducation

Congratulations to a 1st grade homeschool student, for receiving a scholarship from the Children First Education Fund. The scholarship was for the amount of $8,988 for the 2024-25 school year. The Fund is honored to be able to grant scholarships to Utah students with disabilities who would otherwise have a diminished education experience because of their circumstances. #CFEfund #educationaladvocacy #scholarship #bettereducation
