Catholic Education

All children have a right to an integral, innovative and high-quality education, which promotes the growth of students who will transform their communities and the world. 

A Shared Vision of Just and Inclusive Learning Communities

GHR serves our partners' vision and limitless potential for good through academic intervention, leadership development, and sustainable operations in Catholic schools, while supporting the capacity building of three higher education institutions. 

GHR is working to support our Catholic School partners by:
​
  • Connecting scholars to schools with rigor and relevance

  • Building capacity of higher education partners to expand access and opportunity to aspiring scholars
​
  • Creating pathways toward career exploration prior to college

Partnership At a Glance

Case Study: On Solid Ground
​
In 2019, things were looking dire for Risen Christ Catholic School, a dual-immersion K-8 Catholic school located in Minneapolis’ Powderhorn Park neighborhood. School administrators and members of the school board were seriously considering closing the school down. It was an all-too-common discussion at a time when many Catholic schools experiencing similar challenges were closing at an alarming rate.

Yet through creativity and community collaboration, Risen Christ has remained afloat. This case study details the story of how, offering tools for funders that are considering helping struggling institutions pull themselves out from under the burden of debt.

​Grant-seeker Information
GHR works to respond to the needs of our communities in Minneapolis and around the world, with our focus on existing partners and individuals they serve. Unfortunately, that means we are unable to fund many extremely worthwhile efforts. While opportunities for partnership may be reviewed by GHR staff, we are unable to respond to every unsolicited request.
