In 1983, Most Reverend Thomas V. Daily and Paul J.Birmingham established the St. Anthony's Scholarship Fund, later to be renamed The Catholic Schools Foundation to raise money to assist needy students with tuition assistance to Catholic schools. Twenty years later, CSF has expanded thirty-fold with the support of donors and active members from all sections of the community - business, academia, private and religious. Since 1991, Peter S. Lynch of Fidelity Investments, Inc. has led a committed team of professional community leaders in expanding the organization and its programs.

Such programs as The Inner-City Scholarship Fund, The Inner-City Scholarship Fund Professionals' Team, and The Counseling Program have been instrumental for in reaching new heights in service of Catholic school students.

As The Catholic Schools Foundation grows, so too do the children whose lives are bettered by this assistance. This is only made possible through the generous support of its contributors.
