Dear Board Member,

Notre Dame School is off to a terrific start.  With our strong leadership team at the helm, the students of Notre Dame are looking toward a year of tremendous academic and spiritual growth.  At the start of school, the families were told that their children's days will be enhanced with more Art, Drama, Music and even a new Spanish curriculum on top of what they had come to expect as a rich Notre Dame education.

As members of the Board of Directors, you have shown tremendous leadership and generosity.  Last year our Annual Fund Campaign, which was the first at NDS in a very long time, raised approximately $24,000.00, the majority of which came from you.  As is the case in all Catholic schools, tuition does not cover the cost to educate the children; therefore, charitable giving is necessary to make up the difference.  The money that you gave supported Notre Dame and it’s children; contributing to teachers’ salaries, enrichment programs such as Art & Music, and the overall operational expenses of the school. 

As we embark on a new school year, we ask again that you show your support for Notre Dame School and the Catholic education that our children have come to depend.  Please show your leadership by making a monetary donation or a pledge to the Notre Dame School Annual Fund Campaign.  Our goal this year is $30,000.00. With your help, we hope to motivate the entire NDS community into participating in this very worthy cause.

Thank you again for your past generosity and for considering a gift to the 2011-12 Annual Fund Campaign.

In Mary’s love,
