Cathedral School of Saint Mary continues to celebrate our sesquicentennial anniversary in many ways. One way is by striving to increase the funds for the school. For the past 150 years, devoted people have contributed to the success of the school in various ways; significant among them was an initiative to secure the future of Cathedral School of Saint Mary through the establishment of the Arturo & Louisa Casiraghi Endowment. Currently, the endowment balance is $11,479. During this year of celebration, we are actively seeking funds to assist the school with the goal of tripling the endowment balance. We are prayerfully seeking 150 people to donate $150 towards the endowment. Once we reach this goal, the endowment will increase to $33,979. Please consider joining others who have contributed to this very worthy cause. We deeply value and appreciate your generosity and commitment to Catholic education.
