​What does it mean for a student “SHINE Brightly?” It means they are not only succeeding in our Bright Futures school, but in every school, our students attend in the future – From Pre-K to College. Bright Futures Fund's pathway to success allows for any student in need to 'SHINE.' 

​Finding and continuing a high-quality education can be a struggle to find in our community; a lack of which often leads families deeper into the cycle of poverty. We aim to help families break out of that cycle by allowing students to “SHINE Brightly.” Now with our MOScholars Program, we are able to help ensure that any family who wants their students to attend a Catholic School can have that opportunity.
Piece #1: Pre-K to 8th Grade
  • Whether attending one of our Bright Futures Schools, or an area Catholic School as a part of MOScholars, students in our accredited schools will receive an excellent, values-based education; and regularly perform at or above grade-level; this in spite any challenging life or economic circumstances.
  • In addition to scholarships through our MOScholars Program, tuition is heavily subsidized making a Catholic school education affordable for any family who needs it.
  • Partnership programs allow our student the opportunity to be involved with various extra-curricular and afterschool activities. This ensures that our students will be safe, nurtured and successful in our schools; regardless of their pursuits.
Piece #2: Catholic High School
  • Any student who graduates from a Bright Futures School will be guaranteed an opportunity to attend an area Catholic High School with a scholarship.
  • Providing they reapply, students who are already enrolled in our MOScholars Program will see their scholarships follow them to their new area Catholic High School; making the challenging jump into High School a smoother transition. 
  • The average GPA for BFF students in Catholic High School is 3.3
  • Catholic High Schools have a 99% graduation rate with 98% continuing to college.
Piece #3: A College Education
  • Avila University is committed to offering Bright Futures students the scholarships necessary to make college a reality. 
At every step our students are supported by teachers and administrators dedicated to help them develop a strong character; allowing them to live out their faith and be responsible, educated citizens.

Piece #4: Your Support
  • We offer a clear pathway from Pre-K – College for any student in need. This is a huge offering; and something that few other education programs can offer anywhere. However, we cannot do it without our supporters.
  • Our supporters allow us to not only help our students SHINE academically but ensure that they have a safe and up-to-date environment as well.  
  • As we have no overhead costs, 100% of all donations to BFF go directly to ensuring this plan for success remains available at every step. Bright Futures Fund has been providing this opportunity for our students to SHINE for over 30 years; so when a student starts this track, rest assured that they will finish it.
