Board Chair Message

Dear Friends of Children at the Crossroads Foundation,

 

When The Frances Xavier Warde School (FXW) opened its doors in 1989, Children at the Crossroads Foundation (CATC) was created to help ensure that the school was a reflection of this wonderful city that we live in, drawing on the many talents of children from every neighborhood in Chicago, regardless of financial need.  Now, 35 years later, we are proud to say that over 30% of all students who have attended FXW have received financial support, thanks to the generosity of CATC donors.

 

We hope to continue transforming the lives of Chicago’s children, but we know that this will be impossible without the continued commitment and engagement of our many supporters and friends.  We hope that we can count on you to partner with us in changing the course of a child’s life by making a gift to CATC.

 

Thank you in advance for your support.
