Charnley Foundation Scholarship

The Charnley Foundation awards two $5,000 scholarships every year to two 8th grade CYO participants (one boy and one girl) attending a Catholic high school in the upcoming school year.

The Charnley Foundation was created to continue the legacy of Joan, Joe and George Charnley in Catholic schools across the Archdiocese of Detroit. Joan was an IHN nun and served as the principal of Bishop Borgess High School and Marian High School; Joe was a basketball coach at Divine Child High School and finished his career as director of CYO athletics; and George retired as the pastor of St. James after previously leading several other parishes. The Charnley Foundation Scholarship was established in remembrance of the Charnley siblings to honor their commitment to Catholic education.

Applications for this scholarship are currently being accepted and are due December 30, 2024. Recipients will be announced in February 2025. For more information, visit the Charnley Foundation website or contact Lisa Kullman, founder and president of the Charnley Foundation, at lisa@thecharnleyfoundation.com.
