Every day at Our Lady Queen of Peace we witness the impact a single action can have on our entire school community. • One gesture of kindness that inspires the generosity of spirit from many. • One question during class that engages a lively and meaningful conversation. • One experience that sparks a lifetime passion. • One smile that creates a new friendship. • One teacher that imprints on your heart and mind forever.
The same holds true for the Annual Giving Fund, the cornerstone of Our Lady Queen of Peace fundraising efforts, which allows us to invest added resources and provide new opportunities for our exceptional school. Your single contribution has the power to impact the educational experience of all our students, as well as the remarkable work of our teachers. It signals your confidence in our mission for Catholic values and traditions.
This is the start of the 2024-2025 Annual Giving Fund and our goal is $100,000.00 with the emphasis on additions to our security protocols and equipment, our number one priority for our students and staff is safety. A donation to the Annual Giving Fund is the most important gift you can make for our children. Tuition alone does not cover the cost of educating our children. This is a dilemma faced by all independent schools and this campaign strives to bridge this gap. The current cost to educate a child is $11,514 per year and the tuition per child is $7,377, on average, leaving a gap of $4,137 per student. This is where YOU can make a difference!
Your past contributions and support to the Annual Giving Fund have allowed the students to continue receiving the benefit of a quality Catholic education. The faculty and staff of Our Lady Queen of Peace strive to challenge each student to reach full potential through spiritual, moral, intellectual, social and physical development, so that he/she may become an intelligent, compassionate person who incorporates Catholic Christian values into everyday living.
As we continue to write foundations for support, we prayerfully ask all Our Lady Queen of Peace families, alumni and supporters to consider making a tax-deductible donation to the 2024-2025 Annual Giving Fund. Please see the attached Annual Giving flyer. Every gift, regardless of size, is a blessing and makes a tremendous difference. With your support we will reach our goal as we continue to educate the hearts and minds of our students.
