New tuition Assistance Program
Last year, through the generous contributions of our parishioners, St. Therese was able to exceed the goal set by the Diocese for the 2021 Diocesan Support Appeal. The excess funds of approximately $40,000 have been returned to the parish as a rebate.
We have taken this as an opportunity to provide children of our parish, who may qualify, tuition assistance for attending our Little Way Preschool. For the upcoming 2022-2023 school year, $10,000 is being set aside to begin this tuition assistance program.
The balance of $30,000 is being set aside to seed a viable tuition assistance endowment for the future. Because rebates are not guaranteed each year, future amounts—if any—are dependent on the generosity of parishioners. Details of such an endowment program are being worked out and it is expected that the endowment will be funded and grown through charitable donations (such as cash, stocks/bonds, bequeaths, etc.) from parishioners.
Thank you for your generosity.
