St. Patrick Catholic School kicked-off Annual Fund 16 at Back to School Night on September 17, 2015.
The Annual Fund is dedicated to raising funds to bridge the gap between the revenue generated by tuition and the cost of providing a truly exceptional education for all students. This revenue gap exists because tuition at St. Patrick Catholic School is kept as low as possible to make a St. Pat’s Catholic education accessible to all families regardless of economic means— which is a central value of our Catholic faith. As stated by Cardinal James Hickey, “We don’t educate these children because they are Catholic, but because we are Catholic.”
The theme for the 2016 Annual Fund campaign is Creating a Legacy. The legacy as a church parish, school and community include all contributions made in service to others, so that those that come after will benefit. St. Patrick Catholic School is creating a legacy of excellence in Catholic education, a legacy of a caring community and of family involvement, and a legacy of true character and faith.
Co-chairs for Annual Fund 16, Angela Sorenson and Molly Langdon invite parishioners to reflect on their legacy and ask for a contribution to St. Patrick Catholic School’s Annual Fund this year. Listen to the appeal they shared with parishioners at all Masses the weekend of September 19 – 2015, then read their story in the Annual Fund brochure.

Your legacy is the story you create for your family and for your community. Create a legacy!
