Dear SCB Community,

Joy is contagious.  Hope is powerful.  Together we aim to bring joy to our community and hope to our students and staff.  It is our pleasure to support the theme for the 2024-2025 school year, “Rejoice and Be Glad” through the Annual Fund Campaign, "Spread Joy, Give Hope." 

The Annual Fund Campaign has been an integral part of the SCB community for over 30 years.  The money raised for the Annual Fund is split 60% to the school's endowment which funds scholarships for students.  The other 40% goes to the school's operating budget which supports every aspect of the school from faculty development, faculty financial compensation, classroom resources, extracurricular activities, and programs and facilities investments.  Giving to the Annual Fund directly impacts the entire SCB community.  

The campaign goal for the community this year is $200,000 with 100% participation from SCB families. These funds are essential for continuing a competitive tuition, advancing the quality of education and making SCB an option for so many families. 

The SCB pride runs deep.  Our family has been a part of this community for over ten years and we have witnessed the vital impact it has had on our three children.  We hope to carry on the cougar pride and set the students and staff up to prevail this school year and beyond.  Aiming to continue the St. Charles Borromeo School mission to provide students an exemplary education within the faith-based traditions of the Catholic Church by: preparing leaders of tomorrow, providing opportunities for academic and spiritual growth, offering a secure and supportive environment, and partnering with parents, parish, and community.  It is our honor to serve as chairs of this year’s Annual Fund for this remarkable, unmatched SCB community.

With gratitude and thanks, we are asking each SCB family to consider a donation of any amount to the Annual Fund.  Together we will spread joy and give hope!

Warmly, 

Justin and Marisa Ranes
