Children at the Crossroads

Children at the Crossroads is a nonprofit scholarship foundation. It provides multi-year financial aid to children attending The Frances Xavier Warde School in Chicago. Scholarships support students from financially disadvantaged families, with assistance available in full or partial amounts. The foundation began funding scholarships in 1990 as part of the school's founding vision. It has awarded financial aid to more than 1,000 children and supports scholarship funding that averages seven years. The organization also hosts an annual Bright Futures Dinner and Scholarship Sunday to raise funds for its scholarship initiatives. Its work focuses on helping students pursue a quality education and supporting their academic achievement and future opportunities.
