The CFP Foundation will match a portion of all gifts up to $50,000.
The goal of the College Football Playoff (CFP) Foundation is to make a significant impact off the field in communities touched by this novel playoff system.
We are excited that the CFP Foundation has decided to focus its philanthropy on education and particularly teachers. Great teachers make a difference in our communities. We believe they are our greatest assets. After five tremendously successful campaigns, the University of Notre Dame has again accepted an opportunity to partner with the College Football Playoff (CFP) Foundation to advance the mission of the Alliance for Catholic Education (ACE) to support its educators and their students in under-resourced Catholic schools across the country.
This year the CFP Foundation will match a portion of all gifts up to $50,000. Join fellow members of the Notre Dame family to support the mission of ACE and to provide the opportunity for all children to receive the gift of a high-quality education.
Thanks to the generosity of our donors and the CFP Foundation last season, ACE Teachers and Leaders from nearly 30 different schools were awarded grants through a competitive process to provide their students with Chromebooks, graphing calculators, new desks, athletic uniforms, field trip experiences, school supplies, and so much more!
