Pacelli High School is dependent on many parents, alumni, and friends to support the school financially which ensures that our tradition of excellence continues.

The Annual Fund Appeal – "Faith in Education"
The Annual Fund Appeal is Pacelli High School’s yearly appeal to raise money to meet the needs of our school’s “wish list.” The Fund provides revenue for projects, improvements, supplements and enhancements to our curriculum that might not otherwise be a part of the school budget. Unrestricted gifts to the Annual Fund make up a substantial amount of the annual income. The Annual Fund allows the school to support the faculty, students, and programs that make Pacelli a special school. Donors may also direct gifts to a particular program through the Annual Fund. Tax-deductible donations may be made through June 30, 2009 for the 2008-09 campaign.

Ways to Give

	• Donate Online: Using your credit card, this gift is tax-deductible in the year contributed.
	• Cash: A gift of cash is tax-deductible in the year contributed.
	• Appreciated Securities (stock): In addition to being tax-deductible, donors of stock gifts do not incur capital gains tax.
	• Memorial and honorary gifts: Any gift may be made in honor or memory of an individual.
	• Matching: If your company matches gifts, you receive recognition credit for the full amount.
	• Pledges: By making a pledge to the Annual Fund, you can elect to spread payments throughout the fiscal year, which may allow you to make a larger gift, or you can pledge to make your gift at a more convenient time.

Pacelli High School’s mission for institutional advancement is to invite everyone in the life of the school to become involved spiritually, supportively, and financially in the school's mission and vision for the future.

Thank you to all the generous supporters of our school for your participation in the continued development and integrity of standards established by the Sisters of Mercy over fifty years ago.
