Hudson Catholic Awarded $75,000 Grant

The William E. Simon Foundation has awarded Hudson Catholic Regional High School with a $75,000 grant for the 2022-2023 school year. The grant will be used to fund the St. Peter’s College Dual Enrollment Program which is entering its fifth year at Hudson Catholic as well as our new Media Arts Program with NJCU. Our deepest gratitude to the Simon Foundation!

The William E. Simon Foundation (the “Foundation”) is named after its principal benefactor, William Edward Simon (1927-2000), who established the Foundation in 1967. The Foundation supported charitable organizations – including medical, social service, and educational institutions, as well as Catholic charities – for its first three decades, reflecting the philanthropic interests of Bill Simon and his wife of 45 years, Carol G. Simon, who died in 1995. Bill and Carol Simon had seven children, all of whom serve on the Foundation’s Board of Directors.
