Absolutely.  We enjoy helping donors find programs or areas of campus that represent their interests and passions. 

Sandusky Central Catholic School relies on a combination of state funding, endowed income, and charitable giving to provide the exceptional faith-based education our families have come to expect.

While state scholarships now help make an SCCS education more accessible to families, the funding we receive does not cover the full cost of educating each student. This difference, known as the tuition gap, must be funded through private donations and fundraising efforts.

Charitable giving helps bridge this gap, allowing SCCS to maintain high academic standards, support dedicated teachers, enhance student programs, and provide opportunities that extend beyond the classroom.

Every gift makes a difference. Through the generosity of alumni, parents, parishioners, and friends, we can continue our proud tradition of faith, academic excellence, and service while making a Catholic education accessible to more families.

There are numerous ways donors can make gifts or fulfill pledges, including online giving, planned  giving, endowed funds, stock, and more. Contact our Advancement Office at 419.627.9422 to learn more.  

Yes, many companies offer matching gift programs to employees and their families, which could mean the impact of your gift could be doubled, and sometimes tripled. Check with your employer to see if they offer a matching gift program.

The school has various fundraising events throughout the year, with some of our most impactful being the Winter Gala in December and the Auction for SCCS held in April.

Sandusky Central Catholic School is a 501(c) (3) not-for-profit corporation. All gifts to the school are tax-deductible to the extent of the law. Please consult with your tax advisor before making your gift, especially if you are giving securities or other non-cash gifts.
