What is Giving Tuesday? Giving Tuesday is a global generosity movement, unleashing the power of people and organizations to transform their communities and their world.
When is Giving Tuesday? Giving Tuesday will kick off the season of giving this year by inspiring people to give back on December 3, 2024, and throughout the year.
What are the goals of Giving Tuesday? Central Catholic is hoping to raise $100,000 for tuition assistance on Giving Tuesday, but here's the thing: It's not about making a big gift to Central Catholic. It’s about PARTICIPATION and supporting a school that does good things! Even $5 (or $10) makes a difference.
Thank you for supporting Central Catholic on Giving Tuesday! Go Rams!
Anyone who knows the Rusts (another one of those multi-generational Central Catholic families) knows of their deep roots in the Ramily and their decades of consistent, generous and very ENTHUSIASTIC support. In this video, you'll hear from two members of the Rust family, Vic Rust '88 and Sara Rust Kelly '91 as they talk about their Central Catholic experience. As the children of Ron Rust '62 and the parents of Madeline Rust '20, Ronnie Rust '16, Jack Kelly '17 and Ryan Kelly '19, Vic and Sara have experienced first-hand the benefits of a Central Catholic education. They also talk about why they support Central Catholic and why they are encouraging everyone to support our school on Giving Tuesday.
Ramily!! Let's be like the Rusts by demonstrating your ENTHUSIASTIC support on Giving Tuesday! We're getting closer and closer to our goal and with your help, we can get there!
Remember, all tuition assistance and endowment gifts (including scholarships) are matched by the OCF Joseph E. Weston Public Foundation. We are grateful to Mr. Weston for his many years of generous support!
