The Word is Catholic is a generous supporter and partner of the St. Augustine Scholarship Fund at McGill-Toolen Catholic High School in Mobile, Alabama. The St. Augustine Scholarship Fund was established in 2018 through the McGill-Toolen Foundation to assist selected incoming freshmen with tuition. To qualify, students must meet standards of academic achievement, be involved in community service and show a commitment to the Catholic faith as well as demonstrate a financial need. Scholarships are offered to the children of those who serve the Catholic community such as Catholic school teachers, first responders, and active duty military, as well as, children of McGill-Toolen Catholic alumni and Aquinas scholars.
