Xavier Impact Fund: Parish Outreach (Parish Appeal)

Funds raised through the Xavier Foundation's annual outreach to partner parishes (formerly the "Parish Appeal"), supports the new Xavier Impact Fund. Xavier Impact Fund provides support to three key areas of need at Xavier High School:

1. Family Financial Assistance: Xavier's goal is to keep Catholic education as an affordable and viable option for all families, regardless of their economic situation. This goal is made attainable through Xavier Impact Fund's bolstering of Xavier's existing local family assistance program. 
2. New Teacher Endowment: Xavier teachers earn, on average, substantially less than their public school counterparts. This newly-established endowment will help to close that gap.
3. Faith and Academics: Xavier continues to flourish in its ability to help students deepen their faith and prepare them for success in and all endeavors they wish to pursue beyond high school. Xavier Impact Fund will help Xavier continue to grow existing opportunities and launch new initiatives to help students in their faith and academic pursuits.

The 2021-22 Xavier Impact Fund parish outreach launches the last weekend in September with a goal to raise $525,000! Look for Xavier volunteers in our area parishes the weekends of September 24-25 and October 2-3 (Immaculate Conception, St. Jude, and St. Wenceslaus will be October 2-3 and October 9-10 Masses). The effort will be led by with overall campaign chairs Jamie and Tammy McAllister of St. Joseph parish, and co-chairs KJ and Kris Pilcher of St. Jude parish. In addition to the three key areas XIF will support, we remain committed to our partner parishes so we are happy to announce that every dollar raised above a parish’s goal will go directly back to the parish to be used for the parish’s greatest need! There are many changes to the campaign due to COVID-19 to keep our volunteers and donors safe, so please watch your mailbox for a commitment card that can be either dropped off after mass with a volunteer outside the main doors, or mailed in at your convenience.
