The Office of Catholic Education and PA State requirements mandates that ALL CYO volunteers and coaches must be in full compliance with the Safe Environment Program requirements in order to work with our children. We depend on parent volunteers for our many CYO functions throughout the school year.

The Saint Jerome Catholic Youth Organization (CYO) operates as part of the St. Jerome Parish on behalf of its youth. Our purpose is to help foster, in our members, a greater awareness of their life within the parish and to help instill Christian values based on the Gospel. Saint Jerome CYO helps fulfill our mission of service to the youth of our parish by providing opportunities for the growth of our members through athletic, social, service, and above all, spiritual programs.
St. Jerome CYO is proud to announce the creation of the Jim Heisler Memorial CYO Scholarship. Jim was an invaluable member of our St. Jerome’s Family - including his service on the CYO Board. His three children - Liam (Class of 2013), Addison (Class of 2015), and Gavin (Class of 2018) - all graduated from St. Jerome’s and attended Father Judge and Archbishop Ryan High Schools. Even after his children graduated from St. Jerome’s, Jim still dedicated his time and energy to a variety of committees, boards and events. He truly loved the St. Jerome community and, while we miss his physical presence, his spirit is still with us. St. Jerome CYO Board was blessed by Jim’s involvement and we are honored to be able to remember him in this way.
The CYO received generous donations in Jim's memory and, as a result of those donations, a $1,000 scholarship was given to one girl and one boy of St. Jerome's graduating class who will be attending a Philadelphia Archdiocesan High School. The recipients were chosen based on their involvement in CYO activities as well as their individual and family involvement in the parish community during their years at St. Jerome's.
Congratulations to this year's recipients, Camryn Brescia, who will be attending St. Hubert's, and Jake Printz, who will be attending Father Judge! Wishing you both continued success in high school!
