Annual Eagle Fund
As you pray and reflect on your walk with God during this Lenten season, consider helping others who are financially struggling. We have seen an increase in families needing tuition assistance and we are asking you to prayerfully consider a gift to our Annual Eagle Fund. As a community, we can help to bear the cross of tuition together and help students receive the gift of a Catholic Education.
Any gift regardless of size can make a difference.

Prior to the pandemic, our Alumni Department provided service at St. Lawrence Haven, the sack lunch program run by St. Vincent DePaul, once a month. In lieu of our volunteers going to St. Lawrence Haven during the pandemic, they have been providing sandwiches, fruit, drinks, and treats for the patrons of St. Lawrence Haven twice per month over the past year.
Our bi-monthly delivery to St. Lawrence Haven during the pandemic has been overwhelming, thanks to the amazing support and generosity of our group. We have contributed over 15,000 sandwiches as well as a tremendous supply of fresh fruit, baked goods, cases of water and other drinks, chips, and treats.
The need continues to be great and we will continue to provide to St. Lawrence Haven in this manner.
If you would like to participate in this service endeavor, please email Terri Kernan at tkernan@cdeducation.org.
