Faced with the many challenges currently in our world, affording a Catholic education has become an even greater struggle for many families. We invite you to join us as we continue our commitment to support the mission of Catholic school education in our diocese. Now, more than ever, families need the financial assistance of our community to ensure their children can continue their Catholic education, which is based on the Gospel message of Jesus Christ and rich in Catholic values and tradition. Diocesan Catholic schools provide for the education and formation of more than 6,800 students encompassing the five counties of our diocese. In developing the gifts, talents and uniqueness of their students, our schools seek to prepare leaders and Christian stewards as a beacon of hope for the Church of the future.
Please contact the development office at 561-775-9590 if you have any questions or concerns.
