The mission of Corpus Christi Catholic School is to nurture every child by providing the opportunities to grow in faith, achieve academic success, and serve others as disciples of Jesus
November 22, 2021
Dear parents and members of the Corpus Christi Catholic School community,
Since 2017, Corpus Christi Catholic School has participated in #iGiveCatholic. Celebrated on the Tuesday following Thanksgiving, we are joining with schools and parishes throughout the Archdiocese of Mobile and the nation to celebrate this day of Catholic giving. This annual event that coincides with #GivingTuesday is happening on Tuesday, November 30. It is a joyful day when we are able to witness the generosity of our school community!

For more than 60 years, our school has carried out its mission of providing opportunities to grow in faith, achieve academic success, and serve others as disciples of Jesus. We have done so because we have a strong community comprised of students, parents, faculty, and parishioners that support us financially and spiritually.  We are blessed with a student body of nearly 400 students, 55 faculty and staff members, and facilities that not only accommodate our students but also allow for extracurricular classes and activities.
The cost associated with educating our students and maintaining our facilities is substantial. Tuition and fees only cover a portion of the actual cost of educating a student. Together with the assistance of the Parish, the money raised during the #iGiveCatholic campaign help will help close the gap between the actual cost to educate each child and the price associated with his or her education.
We are fiscally prudent with all of the funds we raise through direct donations and fundraising events. We focus our spending on educational enhancements, technology upgrades, and facility improvements. Our most recent investments include providing new desktop computers for all of our teachers and installing fencing around the perimeter of the school grounds.

The money raised during the #iGiveCatholic campaign will be used to support the school’s annual fund and let us purchase items on our “wishlist.” These items will provide our teachers with innovative ways to teach and a means to enrich our learning environments.

  • Set of 6 Playground Balls: $25.00
  • Annual Nearpod Grade Level Subscription: $350.00
  • Annual Gimkit School Subscription: $1,000
  • Filament for MakerBot3D printer: $400.00
  • Tech Tub Classroom Storage for iPads $249 each
  • Laptop for Classrooms Use Dell Latitude 3300‐ 128 GB: $400.00 each 
  • iPad for Classroom Use 10.2-inch iPad Wi-F: $299 single, $2,940.00 for pack of 10
  • SMART Table for Preschool Classroom: $4,500.00
Our goal for this year’s giving day is to increase participation in the fundraiser. Every donation, no matter the amount, makes a difference and will go toward funding items on our “wishlist.” We ask you to prayerfully consider making a donation. Our success in continuing to fulfill our mission is reliant on the generosity of our school families, grandparents, alumni, and parishioners. Working together, we will ensure a strong and prosperous future for Corpus Christi Catholic School.

Advanced giving is happening through November 29. To make a donation today, please visit our fundraising page.
Sincerely,
