Sacred Heart School, combined with many generous donors, alumni donations, the Sacred Heart Foundation, Giving Tuesday and SOLA Giving Day has raised a total of $251,208.37 with an approximate remaining balance of $198,791.63.
Sacred Heart School is currently having an Alumni Challenge. As we all know, aging is brutal, not only to our bodies but also to structures. With that being said, after more than 50 years of Friday Night Lights, football practices, half-time performances, elementary football games, Homecoming presentations, dedications and Powder Puff games, it is time for the lights on our football field to be replaced. After receiving proposals for the project, the total cost to replace the lights is projected to be approximately $450,000. Realizing the funds cannot be obtained from one source, we are asking all Sacred Heart School alumni classes to participate in our Trojan Light ‘Em Up Challenge. While there is no monetary donation too small, the goal of the challenge is for each alumni class to raise a minimum of $5,000 for the purchase of the football field lights. The alumni classes that raise the most funds for the Light ‘Em Up Challenge will be honored during a presentation before the first home football game of the season after the project is complete. A commemorative recognition containing the top winning classes will also be located at the football field as acknowledgement for their contribution to the project. Our alumni challenge results are currently as follows: 1978: $5,000 1994: $2,500 1986: $920 1968: $850 2004: $348.06 1999: $300 1964: $300 2002: $250 2008: $242.28 1960: $225 1969: $150 Thank you to our Trojan Alumni and Supporters for your continued generosity and support for Sacred Heart School. Our goal is to complete the lighting project by the 2023 football season.
