Margaret and Eugene Pexa had great respect for education, especially Catholic education. They also had an express interest in the lives of their nieces and nephews and their families. In 2003, the Pexas set out to establish a memorial trust fund to assist the families of their nieces and nephews by paying educational expenses. They hoped that the trust fund would assist families to provide a good, preferably Catholic, education for their children. They also hoped that the existence of the trust fund would encourage the beneficiaries to pursue solid educational goals.
The Pexas named Mary Wickersham, Sheila Northrop and Joanna Plante as the trustees for the education trust. Current trustees are Sheila Northrop, Joanna Plante and Kevin O'Rourke.
Prospective beneficiaries are those who are descended from the Pexas' 17 nieces and nephews, and are under the age of 30.
