Geographic Focus
Arizona statewide - supports students attending 38 mission-aligned private K-12 schools across the state
Funding Priorities
- Tuition assistance for K-12 students with verified financial need
- Focus on low-income and working-poor families (median family income $44,500)
- 95% of tuition aid supports families in working-poor and low-income categories
- 85% of students identify as minority, including 66% Hispanic
- Guided by Jesuit principles
- Supports students attending mission-aligned Catholic and other private schools
What They Don't Fund
- Does not accept donor-designated or donor-recommended contributions
- Only provides tuition assistance (not other educational expenses)
- Must meet federal free and reduced lunch program income guidelines
- Only supports students attending approved partner schools
Application Method
For Families Seeking Aid:
- Online application through FACTS (independent financial aid assessment company)
- Application window: February 1 - May 15 annually
- $35 application fee
- Required documents: income verification, tax forms, public school attendance verification (if transferring)
- Must reapply annually
How It Works: Arizona's School Tuition Organization (STO) program allows taxpayers to receive dollar-for-dollar state tax credits for contributions to BCF. The foundation then distributes funds based on verified financial need - not donor preference.
