At John Paul the Great Catholic University, we are forming students to be powerful witnesses to Truth in a world that desperately needs it. The Witness to Truth scholarship funds empower passionate young creatives, entrepreneurs, and storytellers to receive a transformative Catholic education rooted in faith and excellence. Your support directly enables these students to pursue their calling without financial burden, equipping them to impact culture for Christ through media, business, and the arts.
Join us in this mission and be a part of raising up the next generation of Catholic leaders who boldly proclaim truth in love.

“My family and I are grateful for the financial support John Paul the Great benefactors have given our daughter.  Without their generous contribution her attendance to this outstanding University may not have been a possibility. We welcome and look forward to the many blessings that will come from this wonderful opportunity.”
