Boylan Catholic's Annual Giving Program is the primary opportunity for alumni, parents, and friends to give back, make a difference, and change lives.

THE ANNUAL GIVING CAMPAIGN

Boylan Catholic High School is a Christ-centered community dedicated to the education of the whole person and committed to truth, service, and academic excellence.

Gifts to Boylan Catholic/s Annual Giving Campaign allow Boylan to fulfill its mission to provide extraordinary opportunities for each student to develop intellectually, ethically, physically, and spiritually. Annual Fund donors provide momentum for institutional initiatives. Among the most recent:

• Growth of the need-based Student Assistance Program
• Technological upgrades, additions
• Advanced Placement Chemistry, Physics lab renovation
• Auditorium stage replacement
• Classroom upgrades
• Installation of energy-efficient windows in courtyard, cafeteria

Gift Restrictions
Although many donors choose to allow the school to use their gifts where they are most needed, several special programs and projects are funded through restricted gifts each year. These include gifts to endowment, need-based tuition assistance, and facilities.

Acceptance
On occasion, Boylan Catholic is presented with a unique gift opportunity that requires the institution to formally accept a gift before it is actually made to the school. For that reason, Boylan Catholic reserves the right to formally review any gift, regardless of its asset form, before it is receipted.

Bishop Lane Society

VISION

Bishop Loras T. Lane opened the doors of Boylan Catholic with this directive:

"SEEK EXCELLENCE IN ALL THAT YOU DO"

It was a clear and timeless vision for a brand new school. Since September 7, 1960, excellence has been the hallmark of a Boylan education.

The Bishop Lane Society enrolls committed individuals who embrace Bishop Lane's challenge and dedicate themselves to annually supporting Boylan Catholic's Mission:

Boylan Catholic High School is a Christ-centered community dedicated to the education of the whole person and committed to truth, service, and academic excellence.

The Bishop Lane Society has been established as an organization that requires an annual gift of one thousand dollars or more. Although most gifts are unrestricted, donors can restrict their gift to a specific program or area-the Student Assistance Program, for example.
