Phoebe Ministries and DeSales University announce a strategic partnership to encourage employee recruitment and retention through discounted tuition for higher education.

Beginning July 1, 2023, DeSales University will provide eligible employees’ children a 60% discount on traditional undergraduate programs upon acceptance to DeSales University. DeSales University will also offer qualifying Phoebe employees a 25% reduction on tuition for select Graduate, Adult Studies Bachelor’s Degree, and Certificate programs. Full-time, part-time, and per diem employees of Phoebe Ministries are eligible to participate.

“We are pleased to announce this partnership with DeSales to support our dedicated Phoebe staff in advancing professionally and personally,” says Scott Stevenson, President & CEO of Phoebe Ministries. “This tuition discount will provide opportunities for learning at an excellent educational institution while also decreasing our Phoebe families’ financial burdens,” he says.
