The CSS Development Office works to secure financial commitments to Catholic Central and West Catholic that will enable the high schools to sustain their mission. We seek to build and maintain relationships with alumni, parents, friends, corporations, foundations, faculty and staff that will result in gifts that help meet the schools’ current and long-term needs.
Through the generosity of our donors, fundraising has helped fill desks that may otherwise remain empty due to families’ inability to afford full tuition. Many students are dependent on CSS fundraising for tuition assistance.
All CSS fundraisers (Annual Tuition Assistance Appeal, CACHE Auction and All A’s Walk) are solely for the increasing need of tuition assistance for families and students. In addition to these fundraisers, the Foundation for Catholic Secondary Education provides long-term financial support to Catholic Central and West Catholic through its endowment fund. Income from the endowment, also primarily supports tuition assistance.
We are here to help! The staff of the Development Office is eager to answer your questions and provide information about giving to CSS.
