A Message from our New Sacred Heart School Foundation President: The Sacred Heart School Foundation has been securing Sacred Heart School’s future for 42 years. With the help of many, the endowment fund started in 1981 and has grown to over 2 million dollars. To date, over $450,000 in earnings from that endowment has been gifted to Sacred Heart School. Of these disbursements, $80,000 has been given to athletics, and the remainder has been provided for the purpose of academic enhancements for the instruction of our students. We are anticipating a record disbursement this year with a possible gift of over $44,000.
You can be assured that your donations are PROTECTED by a board of directors who put the education of Sacred Heart School as our #1 priority. A new generation of members have been recently added to the Foundation, bringing ENERGY and INSIGHT while assisting the administration of our school in utilizing the funds to enhance our curriculum.
Sacred Heart School Foundation sees Sacred Heart School as a family. It is our privilege and responsibility to protect this family. ~Mark Buller Record Breaking SHS New Year’s Eve Foundation Dance, Buffet and Auction Sacred Heart School Foundation recently held its first ever New Year’s Eve Celebration on December 31, 2022.
