The Deloitte Foundation continues to drive education initiatives that help build pathways to opportunity for the workforce of tomorrow. In spring 2026, the Foundation awarded a $2,200,000 grant to the Cristo Rey Network to provide college scholarships across its network to graduating Class of 2026 seniors to help students attend college and further their readiness for business, technology, and engineering careers.

The 2026 recipients selected by each local Cristo Rey school will be named Deloitte Foundation Scholars, and each will be awarded $2,000-$10,000 towards their interest in pursuing business, engineering, or technology careers at a postsecondary institution of their choice.

For the past four years, the Deloitte Foundation has made grants to fund college scholarships across the Cristo Rey Network. Impact has increased each year to support a total of more than 1,200 Cristo Rey students across the US, with an additional class of scholarships to be awarded in 2026.

Students from across the Cristo Rey Network share the impact these scholarships have made on their education and career journeys:

Each local Cristo Rey school’s college counseling team, along with school leaders, are selecting recipients, who have been admitted to college with an interest in pursuing careers in business, technology and engineering. In addition to demonstrating financial need, Deloitte Foundation Scholars must demonstrate academic and leadership excellence.
