A fundraiser & SPRING

TSF volunteer opportunity during the NFL DRAFT 2025.


Dear OLOL Parents,

We have an exciting and unique spring Packer Parking opportunity this year as Green Bay hosts the NFL Draft!

After coordinating with the Green Bay Distillery staff, we have updated the Packer Parking sign-up with new slots for Wednesday, April 23, through Saturday, April 26. Please note that, unlike regular Packer Parking, we will need to remain on-site even after the lot is full, as there will be people coming and going throughout the day and night.


You can find the updated slots at the bottom of this Sign Up Genius: Football parking: Packer Parking 2024-2025 Season


This is a fantastic chance to raise additional funds for our school, and your support is greatly appreciated. Thank you for helping make this event a success!

Volunteers are needed for this event. Cllick here to signup and assist us.

Our Lady of Lourdes Service Project


We are collecting hygiene and cleaning items for “Help for the Homeless”.


As Catholics we often hear that Jesus never turned anyone away, and yet in today's world we often make judgments to justify why we ignore and/or turn away from the needs of others.


Maybe you have never considered the impact a simple thing like soap, deodorant or toilet paper can make on a person or family.


How can we make a difference in our community with Help for the Homeless?
