Be the difference maker for deserving young women whose families, even when making sacrifices, need extra support to make Padua Academy their home!

Since our start in 1954, Padua Academy continues to be a "school with a soul."  Our academic program meets students where they are, and offers them the opportunity to grow in spirituality, scholarship, service and sisterhood.  In addition to innovative electives and relevant core classes, students engage in meaningful ways in community service, athletics, and the arts.  Through these pursuits, they grow as individuals and come to better discern the way they can contribute to the greater good of their community as they work towards their individual goals.

We ask that you partner with us in empowering the leaders of tomorrow.  All donations through this year's Do More 24 campaign will support the Father Roberto Balducelli Scholarship Fund.  The Roberto Fund honors Fr. Roberto Balducelli's legacy: he always opened the doors of Padua Academy to the young women that sought what we offered.  Then, as now, it is thanks to the generous support within the community that Padua can meet the needs of our families through robust financial aid and scholarship support.

Thanks to the generosity of an anonymous donor, all gifts through the Do More 24 campaign to the Roberto Scholarship Fund will receive a dollar-for-dollar match up to $2,500.
