MISSION: The Chatfield Edge empowers and accompanies students as they transform their lives through the pursuit of postsecondary 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.
The Chatfield Edge envisions 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.
SERVING OUR COMMUNITY: The Chatfield Edge is a nonprofit organization that offers a unique approach to supporting first-generation and nontraditional students pursuing postsecondary education. Our services include assistance in choosing a field of study, identifying the right institution to meet educational goals, college application and FAFSA assistance, career counseling, mentoring, providing scholarship funds, and developing servant leaders. We believe education can help our scholars move beyond their current life limitations and create a better future for themselves and their families. Whether education occurs in a college or university setting, a trade school, or a certificate program, the support and encouragement we provide will give individuals The Chatfield Edge.
