Please join us for Giving Tuesday in support of St. Christopher School! Created in 2012, Giving Tuesday is a global movement that inspires hundreds of millions of people to give, collaborate, and celebrate generosity.

For over 65 years, St. Christopher School has continuously built on a tradition of excellence, guiding students to become young men and women of competence, integrity, and compassion. As one of only 35 remaining WNY Catholic elementary schools, we are proud of our resilience, and we are committed to ensuring that St. Christopher School continues to thrive. Last year, your Giving Tuesday contributions helped fund the new indoor play space, a new interactive smart panel in one of our pre-k classrooms, and our emergency tuition program. This year, your contributions will help us create additional enrichment spaces for our students, provide tuition assistance, and support teacher retention, educational development, athletics, and other school activities.

In addition to these important initiatives, fundraising allows St. Christopher School to provide a high-quality education while keeping tuition affordable. Each year, the school must fundraise the difference between the actual cost of education per student and the tuition rate per student. For the current school year, the average cost of education per pupil is approximately $6,850.00. With a current tuition rate of $4,350.00, the school must raise the remaining $2,500.00 per student. While this is a challenging task, we are continuously humbled by the generous support of our steadfast and vibrant community. Moreover, whether it is academics, athletics, service, or faith, our dedicated teachers and extraordinary students consistently amaze us, and show why St. Christopher School is worthy of your support.

This Giving Tuesday, we are asking you to get ready to make YOUR impact. Donations can be made from Tuesday, November 28th, at 12:00am, through Wednesday, November 29th, at 12:00pm.

Best of all, if we meet our fundraising goals, our students stand to earn some fun rewards:

If we raise $4,000.00, students will earn a school-wide pajama party, complete with a hot chocolate bar, popcorn, and a movie!
If we raise $7,000.00, in addition to the pajama party, students will earn a school-wide dance party with everyone’s favorite DJ, DJ Zack!

Please share the aforementioned link with your family and friends and follow our Facebook page for frequent updates on this campaign! As always, thank you for your continued support of our school.
