by “The times we are going through are difficult because cruel persecution of the Church is raging. But you bold and good young people should not be afraid of this small thing; remember that the Church is a divine institution and cannot come to an end. She will last till the end of the world. Not even the gates of hell can prevail against her.” – Pier Giorgio Frassati
NORTH OLMSTED, OH – While the below message is for the parents & guardians of the students at St. Brendan’s school, I personally feel that the entire community can get involved and help and that is why I wanted to share it. My children have been blessed to attend this wonderful school for the last 7 plus years and I cannot say enough good things about how it has helped grow their faith, confidence and educated them. SBS is a great school and if we can all give a little in a few weeks, it will go a long way!
We’re a close knit community at SBS and while that is great, we don’t always have the “man power” of enrollment numbers to boost big financial numbers like neighboring parishes may have. With that being said, I always want to put the word out into the community because it never hurts to help, give back and let these children know you believe in them and their future.
Giving Tuesday is only 3 weeks away and their goal this year will directly impact all families of St. Brendan’s. Their goal came from parent, faculty and student feedback and directly impacts every child, every classroom, and every family in the school community. Their school goal is to bring air conditioning into the classrooms.
Giving Tuesday is December 1 and will be filled with incentive hours for giving on this date as well as the Diocese will host power hours where the students can win additional monetary gifts throughout the day.
The goal is to raise $58,000 ($580 per family) which would air-condition half of the classrooms. The stretch goal, the full cost of the project, is $116,000 ($1,160 per family).
The school community is strongest when everyone comes together, and this is one of those moments where it will truly be all hands on deck!
Let’s make it happen.
Thank you!
