You Can Double Your Gift At No Cost To You!   Did you know that over 16,500 companies match charitable donations made by their employees?  And, that number is growing!  For a typical capital campaign like our Endowment, one out of every ten gifts is eligible for a match by the company the donor works for.  So, of nearly 300 Endowment donors to date, that means about 30 would probably have a corporate match available.  We have been blessed with 10 individual donors working for eight companies.  This means there are probably 20 more matches out there.  The individual donor contributions of over $28,000 have been DOUBLED to $56,000!  Our corporate partners presently include Pfizer, H. J. Heinz, Verizon, Merrill Lynch, Cephalon, GlaxoSmithKline, Aetna, and Vanguard.  If you think your company may match employee contributions, please contact your Human Resources department or Maureen Snook at St. Agnes at 610-692-2990 or edfund@saintagnesparish.org.  The process is VERY easy!  Thank you for your consideration!

We are heading into the home stretch of our three year capital campaign. Many thanks to the 10 donors who collectively gave $5,315 in March, 2011. We continue to depend on our faithful contributors who month in and month out support Catholic education here at St. Agnes. We hope the 2010 Annual Report recently published in our Sunday bulletin was informative. If you have any questions, please contact Maureen Snook at the St. Agnes Rectory at 610-692-2990 or edfund@saintagnesparish.org for more information. Thank you!

Many thanks to everyone who helped with the recent March 21-22 Commitment Weekend for our Education Endowment Fund here at St. Agnes.  Pledges from the Weekend now total $34,872, made by 54 generous donors!   Combined with our home-visit campaign in the spring and summer of 2008 and our mail campaign in the fall, we have now reached our initial campaign goal of $1.5M!!!  Work will continue, but meeting this milestone is a great accomplishment.  We could not have done it without our many volunteers and the grace of the Holy Spirit.

Additional accomplishments include creation of a permanent Endowment Board as well as a School Advisory Council.  Pledges are being redeemed, an annual events(s) is being planned, and alumni lists are under development.

Thanks again and please check back soon!!!
