Description

Greetings,

My name is Megan and I am on working on a fundraising event for St. Catherine – St. Lucy School in Oak Park, IL.  This amazing grade school sits in Oak Park but serves the Austin neighborhood – some of the most dangerous and violent neighborhoods in Chicago.  It’s a great place with great people who are in great need of our support.   99% of families receive tuition assistance, most can only pay a small fraction of tuition, if any at all.  SCSL School is a beacon of hope for these families.  Not only does the school provide a warm, safe and nurturing environment, it is excelling in providing the students with an excellent academic experience. 

I am looking for donations to assist in our fundraising efforts at The Planting Hope event we are hosting on June 21st, 2023.  This event will be ticketed with bidding opportunities in a silent auction, donation opportunities through a paddle raise and general donations made towards specific fundraising goals the school has (ie uniforms for the basketball teams, tuition for a student, etc). 

Thank you for your consideration.

Cordially,

Megan Dunn
