The Work of Heart Award, funded by a grant from The Catholic Foundation, was originally created in 2005 by a generous anonymous Dallas family. It has made over 1,300 awards, amounting to over $785,500, to deserving Catholic educators, administrators, and employees.
This is the 18th year for the program and there have been a few changes to the Work of Heart program.
The stipend for each award recipient has been increased from $500 to $1000.
