Annual Fund Campaign

• The Annual Fund Campaign (AFC) is a yearly appeal for donations to support the current operations of our school. These gifts help enhance the day-to-day life of every student and faculty member.

WHAT IS ITS PURPOSE?

• In order to make a Catholic education accessible to as many students as possible, we do not charge the full amount that it costs to educate a student. Only a portion of the school's operating expenses are covered by tuition revenue; therefore, we rely each year on unrestricted gifts from parents, relatives, friends and alumni to make up the difference. Monies collected support a variety of programs, including academics, religious education, technology, athletics, and maintenance of school facilities, to name a few.
• Gifts for the 2023-2024 AF will not only help to keep tuition low for families, but it will help to improve the safety and security of our campus.
• We plan to replace our dated intercom system, upgrade the original fire alarm pull stations, and install new and improved self-locking gate knobs, just to name a few.

WHY ARE ALL ANNUAL FUND GIFTS IMPORTANT?

• Your gift, regardless of size, signifies your commitment and dedication to Holy Rosary and its mission. Also, a high participation percentage among parents and alumni helps us successfully solicit grants from foundations and other sources of revenue.

GIFTS CAN BE MADE IN SEVERAL WAYS:

• Cash: Gifts of cash are the most common forms of support. Checks should be made payable to “Holy Rosary Catholic School” and sent directly to the Principal at 12925 East Main Street, Larose, LA 70373.
• Quarterly Donations: Pledges may be spread throughout the year. Upon request, the school will send reply envelopes through the Hawk's Herald, HRCS’s quarterly newsletter.
