SCHOLARSHIP FUND MATCHING GIFT PROGRAM A group of generous donors has pledged to match contributions to the St. John OEI Scholarship Fund dollar for dollar during the current academic year. Through the Scholarship Fund Benefit Series, adults can deepen their understanding of the Orthodox Faith while helping make Orthodox education available to children whose families cannot afford full tuition. Every dollar of course proceeds goes directly to the Scholarship Fund and qualifies for a matching contribution. Thanks to the generosity of our supporters, the Initiative has never had to turn away a student because of a family’s limited financial resources. Your participation helps us continue that commitment. |
