Every March we celebrate our Jesuit, Catholic heritage through our annual Giving Day. This year, we're going big. St. Ignatius of Loyola, our school's patron, was canonized to sainthood on March 12, 1622. In honor of his 400th anniversary of sainthood, we have set a goal to raise $400,000 to support the mission and students of Saint Ignatius High School. Beginning on Friday, March 11 – and for the following 1886 minutes – we will celebrate our Jesuit roots with the 5th annual Giving Day.
We ask you to consider joining our efforts by making a gift in support of our students and our mission. All gifts will directly support current students, and help provide tuition assistance to families that would otherwise not be able to afford Saint Ignatius. Gifts can be designated to the area of the school that means the most to you.
We hope our community will once again rally behind our efforts to help us raise $400,000. Together, let's go big to guide our students on their journeys of faith formation, leadership and service to others... It takes all of Saint IgnatiUS.
Need help making your gift? Email annualfund@ignatius.edu or call 216-634-8805 and a member of the Giving Day team will be glad to assist you. Thank you!

When 100 young alumni (Classes 2021-2002) make a gift in the next 10 hours, an anonymous donor will donate an additional $10,000. Help us finish strong!
1070 days ago by Angela O'DonnellDesignate your gift to The Welsh Academy, our middle school for 6th-8th grade boys from the City of Cleveland. Because of the generosity of benefactors to The Welsh Academy, our families receive aid for the full cost of tuition. That means there is no financial obligation to attend The Welsh Academy. Donations made on Giving Day will support annual operations for the academy.

1070 days ago by Nora HudecDesignate your gift to the Magis Scholars Program, the brainchild of Rita & Peter Carfagna '71, between 10 a.m. and 12 p.m. as part of #SIHSGivingDay. This program identifies incoming freshmen who have already demonstrated the values of a Saint Ignatius student and have received tuition assistance from the school; but because the school cannot always meet 100 percent of a family’s need, the program helps to close the gap.
All gifts designated to the Magis Scholars Program will be matched dollar for dollar (up to $50,000) by the Carfagnas, doubling the impact of every gift.

If we reach 250 donors by noon today, a $25,000 gift will be added to our total because of the generosity of a member of the Class of 1979.


This is a perfect lunch or dinner option for a Lenten Friday - and it helps support Giving Day! Must mention Saint Ignatius High School. Valid for dine-in or carry-out orders.
