Scholarship Fund
The Lion's Den Scholarship Program gives YOU the opportunity to directly
touch the life of a Cristo Rey student.
Each Cristo Rey student earns the majority of the cost of his/her
education by working at an entry-level clerical job five days per
month. According to their means, parents contribute to the $2,000
tuition. However, the average income of a Cristo Rey family is less
than $30,000 so the majority of families receive aid that makes it
possible for their child to attend Cristo Rey.
As a member of the Lion's Den, you will:
• Provide an opportunity to a worthy young person to attend
a small, Catholic, college-preparatory school
• Bridge the gap between what families pay and the cost of tuition
• Receive updates from the school and individual student regarding
his/her progress at Cristo Rey
Join the Lion's Den by giving a gift of:
• $1,000 (50 percent of tuition)
• $1,200 (60 percent of tuition)
• $1,400 (70 percent of tuition)
• $2,000 (50 percent of tuition for two students)
