Fundraising Events
Fundraising plays an important part of the Cathedral community. The annual operating budget for Cathedral School is not funded by the tuition revenue alone. 89% of Cathedral School’s income comes from tuition. Fundraising makes up the other 11%.
Fundraising is needed to bridge the gap between tuition revenue and the actual operating costs. Our annual fundraising efforts continue to position Cathedral School at the front of the pack in terms of innovation, teacher salaries, and campus upgrades.
Our three main fundraising events of the year include:
-
Run for Cathedral
The Run for Cathedral is an annual jog-a-thon, held in September, in which Cathedral School students raise funds for curriculum enhancement. The Run for Cathedral funds the art program as well as supports other enrichment classes and activities for students.
-
Celebrate Cathedral
Celebrate Cathedral is our school’s largest fundraiser and a celebration of our remarkable school and community. The festive evening consists of a cocktail party and donation paddle raise and is held in November.
-
April in Paris(h)
April in Paris(h) is our annual spring celebration of art and community held at the end of April at Cathedral School. The event showcases our student art show, along with food and drinks, and an online auction component which features class art projects and other special items and experiences.
