October 20, 2020Be part of the movement that kicks off the giving season by supporting the courtyard improvement project at Villa Angela-St. Joseph High School during #WeGiveCatholic on Dec. 1.
#WeGiveCatholic is a one-day giving event that provides Catholic schools, parishes, charities, special ministries and nonprofits affiliated with the Diocese of Cleveland the opportunity to connect with current donors and establish relationships with new ones.
VASJ is raising funds to renovate its courtyard. Donor support will help to turn the courtyard into a quiet, reflective prayer space for students, faculty and staff. The plans include updating landscaping, adding outdoor seating, developing an outdoor learning environment for students, building a grotto for Mother Mary and even planning a small garden for community outreach.
“VASJ is dedicated to supporting students' spiritual, academic and personal growth,” said Brianna Wilson, director of Campus Ministry at VASJ. “Improving our courtyard is one more way that we are affirming this to be true. This will be a space for our students to pray, learn and build community together. Students will be able to use this space for their classes, faith club gatherings, retreats and their own personal reflection time. We hope to create a space for students to enjoy as they deepen their relationship with God.”
On Tuesday, Dec. 1, starting at 12 a.m., visit bit.ly/WeSupportVASJ to make a gift. Supporters will have 24 hours to make donations, so all giving will end at 11:59 p.m.
"Spiritual spaces are the heart of our school," said VASJ president Richard Osborne '69. "They not only provide students with an environment conducive to prayerful reflection but also serve as a visual reminder of who we are and why we are here."
Please join us during these 24 hours of giving and gratitude. For more information, visit bit.ly/WeSupportVASJ.
Thank you for your continued support of our school and students!
