Your continued generosity helps ensure that our students benefit from an exceptional educational experience and provides meaningful learning opportunities in and out of the classroom.

Thank you for making a difference in the lives of our students through the Salerno Catholic Education


FUNDING PRIORITIES

Support Notre Dame Schools

ANNUAL OPERATING SUPPORT

Each year, Notre Dame Catholic Schools relies on a significant number of gifts and grants to complete the funding picture for the school year – along with revenue generated from tuition and fees. These critical dollars ensure that the Schools can meet all the necessary financial obligations that are the backdrop to the kind of educational experience our families come to expect and our students so richly deserve. When you contribute to the Salerno Catholic Education Fund, 40% of your contribution directly supports annual operations.

 

FINANCIAL AID & SCHOLARSHIPS

Nowhere do gifts and grants impact the educational experience of our students more than through those contributions directed to financial aid and scholarships – critical dollars that make the difference on whether a family can send a child to Notre Dame Catholic Schools. Through your contributions to the Salerno Catholic Education Fund, 60% will automatically be directed to a permanent endowment to ensure scholarship funds are available for the long term.

 

PERMANENT ENDOWMENT

Whether through an outright gift or a planned or deferred gift through an estate, contributions to the school's permanent endowment ensure a predictable stream of income every year that can support many of the core essential needs our students require or help to fund in whole or part special educational initiatives.

 

FACILITIES

From time to time, as is the case for any educational institution, Notre Dame Catholic Schools has to be the good stewards of its buildings and grounds, which require annual maintenance and renewal, and sometimes extensive renovations to ensure that our students learn and play in a safe and nurturing environment. Contributions may be directed to support the school's buildings and grounds at the donor's discretion.
