The Children at the Crossroads Foundation was created in 1990 under the belief that economic circumstances should not preclude an eager and capable child from receiving a quality education.

The Foundation supports the needs of financially disadvantaged children and provides them with a foundation for life that they might not otherwise be able to obtain. Funds are raised through gifts from foundations, grants, our two signature events: The Invitational Golf outing and the Scholarship Dinner and through the very generous support of our Board of Directors, and the parishioners of Old Saint Patrick’s church and Holy Name Cathedral.

To date, the Children at the Crossroads Foundation has provided more than $7 million in scholarships. Staying true to our mission, thirty percent of the students that attend The Frances Xavier Warde School receive either full or partial financial assistance. Though meeting the scholarship needs of our growing school is more challenging today than it was twenty years ago, the Children at the Crossroads Foundation has not wavered on its commitment to provide opportunity, support and hope to the more than 200 children that attend FXW on scholarship each year.
