Time. Talent. Treasure.
How will you choose to help?
Welcome to the St. Mary’s School Fundraising Committee page. Thank you for visiting!
In March 2021, Our Lady of Perpetual Help Catholic Church faced a tough decision. The parish council asked parishioners, teachers, friends, and families to raise money to meet a deficit at St. Mary’s School.
St. Mary’s School Fundraising Committee was created. By November of 2021, the committee had met its first goal. By July 1st, 2022, the Fundraising Committee had collected over $100,000. A commitment was made at this time by the parish council, pastor, and parishioners; to protect and support St. Mary’s Catholic School each year.
However, this fundraising isn’t a one-time deal! The goal for the current fiscal year– 2024 through 2025– runs from July 1, 2024 to June 30, 2025.
