Generous support through gifts of time, talent and treasure play a significant role in the life of Lourdes Academy. Our annual budget income comes from a combination of tuition (60%), our development funds (20%) and the generosity of our parishes (20%).
The Annual Gala is our single largest fundraiser.
The funds raised at the auction support our quality teachers by paying competitive salaries, updating teaching tools, providing classroom materials, covering the cost of our athletic programs and our impressive fine arts program. Lourdes Academy is about giving our students the tools for success.
In short the money raised is about creating excellence and the ability to support outstanding faith based educational opportunities for our children. It's about keeping tuition affordable and making a Lourdes Academy education available to everyone now, and in the future.
