Alumni Appeal 2010 - Participation is the Common Thread!
What is the Alumni Appeal?
The annual LaSalle, Regis, Xavier Alumni Appeal takes place in late February and early March. During the appeal, more than 60 local LaSalle, Regis, and Xavier alumni, parents and friends join forces in an effort to help the Xavier Foundation raise funds in support of current and future Xavier High School students. Volunteers will make more than 1,800 calls to classmates across the country.
What does my Alumni Appeal gift support?
Because tuition only covers a portion of the cost to educate a student, funds raised from the Alumni Appeal help bridge that gap by supporting the operating needs and funding special projects at Xavier High School. In addition, the phonathon helps update alumni records and provides an opportunity for alumni to catch up with one another. Xavier High School senior, Spencer Hughes, has volunteered to help our alumni and friends know exactly what a day in the life of a Xavier student is like. Click here to meet Spencer and see how your gift really does make a difference in the lives of students on a daily basis!
