The Newman Catholic Schools Annual Fund is a yearly program developed to attract contributions, primarily of an unrestricted nature, to help offset the costs of a Newman Catholic School education and day-to-day operations. The goal of the NCS Annual Fund Drive is to raise funds to help support programs throughout ALL of our schools. Parents, alumni, alumni parents, and friends all invest in the Annual Fund. Currently tuition and fees cover approximately 38% of the operating budget, and parish support provides 40%, resulting in the extreme importance of additional development and fundraising efforts to cover the remaining 22%. The success of this fund drive is essential for us to continue to meet the needs of our students and to help keep the cost of a Newman Catholic School education manageable.

We extend our deepest gratitude to all supporters of the Annual Fund Drive. Names of donors at the following giving levels are displayed on our "Annual Fund Honor Roll of Donors" recognition board located outside of the Development Office at Newman Catholic High School.
