| | Giving Tuesday a Great Success! | | |
Thanks to the extraordinary generosity of our Bishop Watterson family, this year's Giving Tuesday was a remarkable success! On December 2, our community came together in a powerful way to support our mission of forming young people in faith, knowledge, and service. Your donations, are already making an immediate impact on our students and the programs that help them grow.
Thanks to the enthusiasm of our donors and the blessing of a $20,000 matching gift, we were able to double the impact of every contribution. Thanks to our generous donors, over $100,000 was raised.
This outpouring of support strengthens our academic opportunities, enriches student experiences, and ensures that every young person who walks our halls has the chance to reach their full potential.
We are deeply grateful to all who donated and helped to make this Giving Tuesday our best one yet!
| | Emmaus Road Tax Credit Program | | Our Alumni Department will be volunteering at food pantries around town in the coming months. If you are interested in participating, please email Terri Kernan at tkernan@cdeducation.org. Thank you for your willingness to help those in need. | | |
