The Joseph A. Tirella Catholic Education Endowment was established to provide financial support to children and Catholic schools that participate in or operate programs that support individuals with intellectual, physical or mental disabilities.
When you make a gift to the endowment, you're doing more than supporting a fund — you're changing lives. Your generosity ensures that all children, regardless of their abilities, can experience the fullness of a Catholic education rooted in dignity, compassion, and inclusion.
In Catholic teaching, every person is created in the image and likeness of God. Our mission is to live out this belief by ensuring that students with disabilities are not only welcomed but are given every opportunity to grow academically, spiritually, and socially in a faith-filled environment. Through your gift, you help create inclusive classrooms, fund specialized resources, support dedicated educators, and build communities where every child knows they belong.
Your support is more than charity — it’s an act of faith, a reflection of Christ’s love for the most vulnerable, and a lasting investment in a more just and compassionate world.
Together, we can open doors to education, opportunity, and hope.
Make a gift today. Change a life forever.
