A gift to the Fr. Sullivan Fund for Athletics, named in honor of the late Fr. William Sullivan, S.J., athletic director at Saint Ignatius, will help to offset the annual needs of our athletic department. This includes coaching stipends, travel expenses, travel expenses, facility costs and uniform repair.
The Fr. Sullivan Fund for Athletics was created in 2017 and is named in honor of the late Rev. William A. Sullivan, S.J. Fr. Sullivan was a famed faculty member and athletic administrator at Saint Ignatius from 1945-1969. During his tenure as athletic director at Saint Ignatius High School, Fr. Sullivan guided the efforts of developing many of our varsity athletic programs.
As an extension of the Annual Fund, the Sullivan Fund helps to support all 16 of our varsity sports financially in addition to offsetting the annual needs of our Athletic Department. This includes coaching stipends, travel expenses, facility costs, uniform repair, etc. Your gift will ultimately ensure that Saint Ignatius student-athletes are able to grow mentally, physically and spiritually through their athletic participation.
Thank you to everyone who has supported the Annual Fund today! We have reached our $300,000 goal and unlocked a $50,000 matching gift! But let's not stop there. We still have a lot of hours left in the day and a lot of prizes to give away including a Welsh Academy gift basket and a vintage-style t-shirt.
Tonight the Cleveland Terminal Tower will be lit in blue and gold to celebrate our roots in the city since 1886. Let's continue the celebration and see how much we can accomplish together!
Thanks to a member of the Class of 1988, we unlocked a $10,000 matching gift by reaching 500 donors! The next matching gift will be unlocked when we reach $200,000 raised.
Donors will now see Venmo as a payment option when supporting Saint Ignatius High School on Giving Day to provide an easy way to make your gift.
Not only were sports able to carry on this year, but our soccer team brought home another State Championship! The first 40 donors who make a gift of $50 or more to support the Fr. Sullivan Fund for Athletics between 8 and 10 p.m. on March 12, will receive a Saint Ignatius money clip.

Donors to Saint Ignatius High School will now see PayPal as a payment option when making gifts via GiveCampus to give you a flexible, on-the-go giving experience.
