Extra Mile Education Foundation provides financial support to children and their families seeking a values-based quality pre-kindergarten through eighth grade education in parochial schools in the Pittsburgh region. Through financial assistance and scholarship support, these children have access to an education that puts them on the path to success.

The assistance that Extra Mile Education Foundation provides takes the form of school subsidies at two schools — St. Benedict the Moor in the Hill District and Sr. Thea Bowman Catholic Academy in Wilkinsburg. In addition, Extra Mile Education Foundation provides scholarship grants to children attending seven other Catholic schools (Northside Catholic School, East Catholic in Forest Hills, St. John Bosco in Brookline, Sacred Heart in Shadyside, St. Raphael in Morningside, St. Rosalia in Greenfield, and Sr. Maria Goretti in Bloomfield) serving children from under-resourced areas.
