MANCHESTER — The Diocese of Manchester, the Roman Catholic Church in New Hampshire, recently announced the availability of the La Cerva Scholarship Fund.
Established by Ella Sue and Salvatore La Cerva in 1993 in collaboration with then-Bishop Leo O’Neil, the scholarship fund enables a Catholic education for students entering grades 6-12. Scholarship awards may cover up to 75% of a yearly Catholic school tuition in Diocesan and parochial (parish) schools in New Hampshire.
“The La Cerva Family has made Catholic education even more accessible to families statewide,” said Superintendent of Catholic Schools and Diocese of Manchester David Thibault. “We are grateful to the legacy their faith and generosity made possible and look forward to witnessing the fruits of it in students for years to come.
Awards are based on demonstrated financial need, along with a set of criteria. Applications will be accepted from current public, private and Catholic school students until May 1.
