As a Catholic school, we are called to keep tuition at a rate that will be economically feasible to as many families as possible. Each year, there is a deficit between the cost of educating the children of Our Lady of Perpetual Help Catholic School and the cost of tuition. As a school community, we are always looking for ways to bridge that gap and help keep tuition as affordable as possible.

Every dollar counts as a strong statement about the commitment you have to OLPH Catholic School and the community. Your participation will make a difference to your child(ren) and the many others served by OLPH Catholic School.

In-kind gifts are tangible items that the school would otherwise have to purchase but that are instead given to OLPH Catholic School as a donation. Items may include sporting equipment, technology, musical instruments or furniture.

These donations provide funding for new or current programs, ensure that current programs can be maintained, help offset unexpected expenses and assist with capital improvements.

A grant is a restricted donation from an individual or organization usually for a specific purpose. Grants to the school might be for tuition assistance, a specific curricular program such as technology, sports or music, or for a specific classroom need.

The endowment fund provides additional support for OLPH Catholic School. Because only a percentage of the earnings on the endowment fund are able to be used, your gift continues to grow even as it gives. The school has an endowment fund to assist with scholarship assistance and to fund certain capital improvements to the school buildings.

Many corporations across the nation match gifts to schools, meaning your gift to OLPH Catholic School could be doubled and sometimes even tripled. This is a great way to maximize your giving.

Please check with your human resources department to see whether your employer matches gifts. It is often as simple as filling out a form and sending it to us.

Each year, the OLPH Catholic School PTO organizes various fundraisers for our school. We are always looking for people or businesses that would like to get involved or contribute to any of these events.

Contact Principal Sharon Krahl at (661) 259-1141 for further information on any of these giving programs.
