Children's Scholarship Fund Baltimore

9,306 scholars. $17.4 million invested. 27 years of proof that this works.

When Baltimore families choose CSFB, their children graduate high school at a 98% rate and earn four-year college degrees at 84% — numbers that speak for themselves.

CSFB awarded 272 K-8 scholarships in the 2024–2025 school year, opening doors for students across Baltimore City. With your help, we can do it again.

📚 A $2,500 donation gives one child a full school year of tuition support to the school of their choice. And if just ten individuals give $25 to our campaign today, we'll raise enough to provide one scholarship for a Baltimore City scholar in need!

Every amount counts. Every donor is part of the blueprint.
Our goal: $10,000 by June 30th → https://loom.ly/Kf6DVL8

Educational choice shouldn't be a privilege.

For 27 years, CSFB has stood alongside Baltimore families who want more for their children. Since 1998, we've invested over $17.4 million in tuition assistance and provided scholarships to more than 9,300 scholars across Baltimore City.

"As a single mother, there have been many sacrifices made to make sure that I can provide her with the best education possible so she can strive to be better than me! This contribution will not be taken for granted. She will continue to work hard and do her very best." — Danielle, CSFB parent

And the results speak for themselves: 98% of our scholars graduate high school, and 84% go on to earn a four-year college degree.

This June, help us keep that record going. Your donation funds the next scholar — and invests in the blueprint for a better Baltimore.

One scholarship. One family. One future unlocked.

"I am very grateful for your support, and it encourages me to keep working hard in school. This scholarship means a lot to me and my family, and I appreciate the opportunities it gives me." — Kailani, 2026 CSFB 8th Grade Graduate

This June, CSFB is raising $10,000 to send four more Baltimore scholars to the school that's right for them! Every amount — large or small — is part of the blueprint.

This June, CSFB is launching our "Invest in Our Scholars. Build the Blueprint for a Better Baltimore" campaign — and we need you!

Every child in Baltimore deserves the chance to learn, grow, and thrive in the school their family chooses. But for too many low-income families, that choice remains out of reach.

A CSFB scholarship puts the power of educational choice directly in the hands of families — and your donation makes it possible. We're raising $10,000 by June 30th — enough to provide scholarships to four scholars this year.

Whether you give $25, $100, or $2,500 to fully fund one scholarship, every contribution builds the blueprint for a brighter Baltimore.

"We are deeply grateful to CSFB and its generous donors for supporting David's education. Your investment in students like my son truly makes a lasting difference, and our family sincerely thanks you for believing in his future the way I do." — Toni K., proud parent of a CSFB scholar
