Annual Giving Program
Thank you to all of our parents, alumnae, and special friends who contribute to our Annual Giving Program. Gifts given through this program benefit all students and continue to assure the academic, spiritual, athletic, and co-curricular excellence at Cathedral High School/John XXIII Middle School.
Each year our goal increases and recently we are facing the need to raise $480,000 to assist with the General Operating Budget - salaries, tuition, books and supplies, program enhancement/technology needs, maintenance and repair of facility, etc. We invite you to share in the success of our students by making a gift to this year's campaign.
A gift of cash, appreciated securities, or major items such as personal property or real estate can reduce your tax liability. We encourage you to consult with your tax advisor regarding any donation you make. A complete 2007-2008 Annual Report acknowledging all gifts received between July 1, 2007 and June 30, 2008 will be included in the fall issue of the Crusader Companion. Donations made between July 1, 2008 through June 30, 2009, will be acknowledged in the 2008-2009 Annual Report.
You are invited to become a member of Cathedral High School's gift societies. Donors who attain these levels receive special recognition through their contributions to our school.

Tax Benefits
Please be mindful of the tax benefits of making a donation to Cathedral High School/John XXIII Middle School or the Cathedral High School Education Foundation. Remember that each dollar you give is fully tax deductible to the extent allowable by law and helps to continue to enhance the quality education provided for our students. In particular, gifts of appreciated stock can offer tremendous tax advantages to the donor. The Development/Foundation Director can help you with the transfer details to make this type of gift easy and effortless.
In the future, we hope to offer opportunities to give online, until then, you can make a gift by sending your contribution to:
Cathedral High School
Development Office
PO Box 1579
St. Cloud, MN 56302
As always, anything that you can do to help CHS/JXXIII Middle School is greatly appreciated!
