2008-2008 St. Joseph & Gehlen Catholic Alumni Appeal
"Just Begin...One, One, One."
"One
prayer at a time...
One project after another...
One activity at a time...
We give to one another...
Thanks to the generosity of ONE gift!"
Once again,
your gift can make a difference through the St. Joseph & Gehlen
Catholic Alumni Appeal. Parish and parental investments do not
cover the entire cost of a student’s education. The gap is
nearly 12%.
The St.
Joseph & Gehlen Catholic Alumni appeal funds the gap and provide
the needed revenues to support the faculty, students, and the
mission of Gehlen Catholic – from the newly added Transitional
Kindergarten Program to 12th grade.
Last year
gifts to the Appeal ranged from nearly $45,000 to $5. Each and
every gift was appreciated and will be recognized in the Spring
Jay Talk.
Individuals
contributing a gift of $1,000 or more, whether as a one-time
gift or over several months, will be recognized on the donor
wall.
