Is it possible for St. Anastasia School to conduct successful fundraising campaign in the middle of a pandemic, when many fundraising methods aren’t available? The answer is a resounding, “Yes!” St. Anastasia students, faculty and families were able to raise $11,965 through the Catholic Schools Raffle program between Jan. 15th through Feb. 28. Along with 81 other schools, St. Anastasia raised a combined total of $1.49 million — a new record for the program.
“As we continue with hardships due to this pandemic, it feels so good to chalk something like this into the win column,” said Michael Ahles, president of Catholic United Financial. “It has been our privilege to offer this program to local Catholic schools for the last 12 years. We knew through experience how creative and enterprising the families and staff at these schools are. They have taken things to a new level in 2021, despite the challenges the lockdowns threw at them. We’re amazed and encouraged at this show of support for Catholic education. Congratulations to everyone involved.”
The 2021 Raffle officially concluded on March 11 with a prize drawing ceremony broadcast live on the Catholic United Financial website. The prizes, valued at over $40,000, included a new 2021 Ford Ecosport SUV, vacations, a $5,000 home improvement package, gift cards, 65-inch smart TVs and more.
Funds raised by participating schools, like St. Anastasia are used to enhance school programs and facilities, including funding field trips, building playgrounds, supplementing tuition costs and providing new education technology.
