"He has smiled on our undertakings"
Since 1985, The George and Mary Kremer Foundation has been committed to providing Catholic elementary schools in the continental United States with tuition assistance grants for children from financially challenged families.
The George and Mary Kremer Foundation was the proud recipient of the National Catholic Educational Association’s St. Elizabeth Ann Seton Award in 2008 for significant philanthropy to Catholic education.
In humble thanksgiving for our ability to support Catholic education, with the grants made in 2025, the Foundation crossed the $100 million mark for the total amount of grants awarded to Catholic elementary schools since our founding.
