ABOUT THE CATHEDRAL FUND
The Cathedral Fund is the school’s annual giving initiative that provides for expenses not covered by tuition and allows us to offer a world-class education to deserving students from every neighborhood regardless of economic circumstances. That true diversity—geographic, economic, religious, and racial—is the essence of Cathedral’s unique character.
From teachers’ salaries, to technology upgrades, creating next-generation learning spaces to building maintenance, the Cathedral Fund provides the financial support for day-to-day operations and critical support of our unique programs, initiatives, and activities.
“GIVE TO OTHERS AND GOD WILL GIVE TO YOU. INDEED, YOU WILL RECEIVE A FULL MEASURE, A GENEROUS HELPING, POURED INTO YOUR HANDS.” Luke 6:38
