Parent Participation Rate Jumps!

Thanks to the generosity of our parent community, the parent participation rate for the Annual Fund has jumped to 63.5%! Our goal is 80%, and we finished the entire school year last year with 67%, so we're making major progress - thank you! Parents who have not made an Annual Fund pledge or a gift yet will be receiving phone calls and letters asking for their support in the coming weeks.  If you have not contributed yet, please consider making your gift today!  To learn what your gift supports, please click here.

#iGiveCatholic Nets $43,500 

In true Golden Lions' fashion, we shattered our goal of $10,000 by raising a whopping $43,500 for St. Pius X during our first #iGiveCatholic national day of giving. Nearly 190 people made gifts during the 24-hour campaign in support of the Annual Fund. Coupled with the Class of 2018's Going Out Golden Annual Fund drive the same day, nearly 80 alumni gave during the one-day effort. Special thanks goes to our two challenge match donors who provided an additional $11,000 as part of the day. Thank you Golden Lions!
