FIRE Foundation Milwaukee

We are a non-profit organization dedicated to advancing inclusion of disabled children in Catholic schools in the Archdiocese of Milwaukee. We unite pastors, principals, families, and donors to offer a faith-based education for all Catholic students, starting with those of greatest disability-related need. We envision an archdiocese that educates disabled students and their Catholic peers and siblings alongside one another. We promote excellence in special education that reflects the quality and character of our incredible Catholic schools. We respond to the call of the Gospel in carrying out this mission. With funding and consultative support, we assist parishes and schools in providing inclusive education. Our annual grants focus on one-to-one classroom support and other critical supplementary aids and services. Through our efforts, students with disabilities share in the incredible and life-changing experience of a Catholic education.
