Donors make it possible
The Chatfield Edge offers its services free of charge to student scholars. This is made possible through the support of donors who share our belief that education is a powerful path to success in life. Whether education occurs in a college or university setting, a trade school environment, or a certification program, the unique support and encouragement we provide are what will give individuals The Chatfield Edge.
Purpose is at Our Core
The Chatfield Edge empowers and accompanies students as they transform their lives through the pursuit of post-secondary education. Our work is rooted in the educational legacy of the Ursuline Sisters of Brown County, and we welcome people of all faith or no faith backgrounds.
We envision a world in which first-generation and underserved students are equipped with resources to reach their education and life goals, increasing their employability and deepening their impact on their families and communities.
