Mission:
The Futures in Education Foundation is a non-profit organization, operating under the umbrella of the Diocese of Brooklyn whose mission is to ensure the continuance of the Catholic schools of Brooklyn and Queens by providing scholarships and program support to the neediest of students and schools. The average income of the families we serve is $26,000 for a family of four. Over 60% of students are minority and over 20% are non-Catholic. The challenge we face is that working poor parents cannot keep up with rising tuition which averages $3,200 a year.
