YOUR GIFT MATTERS
30
Why do you give to The Annual Fund?
The answer to this question is as unique as the 622 people who made Annual Fund gifts last year.
Some give because a special priest or teacher inspired or challenged them. Others give because they learned self-discipline by pushing themselves to be better, stronger athletes. Some give because they remember the thrill of winning a debate or bringing joy to others from singing a beautiful song, painting a pretty picture, or giving a delightful performance in a play.
Others remember the smile on the face of a young child they read to or think of the family who will enjoy dinner one evening because they brought canned goods for a food drive. Maybe you met your future husband or wife as classmates at Cascia Hall! Or perhaps you just felt loved and accepted as a member of our Cascia family.
What is YOUR Cascia story? Thank you for giving so others have a Cascia story to tell, too.
“The Cascia Hall experience was critical to my personal and academic development leading into college and my career beyond that. The foundation of Cascia Hall is its community and supporting that community became priority #1 as a young alumnus. I love cheering on the Commandos at games and volunteering my time for Cascia events, but, to me, the most important way to support our beloved community is to donate to the Annual Fund to bridge the budgetary gap for our current students. It’s the easiest way to strengthen our community and also the most vital.”
