Saint Martin de Porres High School is grateful for our long-standing partnership with The Howley Foundation and Cleveland Clinic, whose support is vital to our mission and the success of our Corporate Work Study program.

We are thrilled about The Howley Foundation’s remarkable $13 million investment in expanding the Howley ASPIRE Pathways Program at Cleveland Clinic. (Cleveland Clinic Press Release). This generous contribution includes an annual provision of ten dedicated spots for Saint Martin students, underscoring our shared commitment to reducing opportunity gaps through education that promotes upward social and economic mobility.

Since our founding in 2003, Saint Martin has been dedicated to shaping the next generation of workforce leaders. A cornerstone of our mission is creating equity through opportunities for a diverse talent pipeline in Northeast Ohio. Our programs are meticulously designed to prepare students not only for academic success but also for meaningful and rewarding careers, thereby contributing to a more equitable and prosperous community. This partnership will enable us to expand our reach, serving more students and fostering new community collaborations that enhance educational and career opportunities.

The Howley ASPIRE Pathways program is designed to remove barriers to in-demand careers in healthcare. Together, we will bolster the local pipeline for careers in healthcare and equip students with the knowledge, skills, habits, and experiences to support their transition through higher education and entry into the workforce. We extend our heartfelt gratitude to The Howley Foundation and Cleveland Clinic for their continued support and shared vision. Your partnership is instrumental in helping us deliver on our mission to ensure students graduate from Saint Martin college ready and career prepared.
