PaduaPlus+ Campaign
Restore. Renew. Innovate. Grow.
The PaduaPlus+ Campaign, and the remarkable generosity of the Padua Franciscan community which it represents, continues its momentum, positively impacting our school facilities and the lives of our students.
This summer, class agent and advocate Bill Melchior ’65 encouraged his classmates to join in the effort, if they felt Padua had any influence on who they are today...to ensure their name and their class would be recognized forever as a result. The Class of 1965, Padua’s first graduating class, completed their pledge to raise $200,000 for the PaduaPlus+ Campaign.
There are still plenty of opportunities to contribute to this campaign. You can name a classroom in honor of your parents or a teacher who had a profound impact on you. Band together with classmates, like the men of ’65 did, and take your contribution to another level by combining efforts. Or simply make a pledge to the place that helped you become who you are today.
CALL TO ACTION
Nearly $4.8 Million dollars has been raised, proving that
the Padua family is like no other.
