Advancement
tinue to fuel the future of Bergen Catholic High School. We are busily preparing the 2013–2014 Annual Steward- ship Report, which will detail and thank our donors, show you the gratifying and positive trends, and celebrate all that these trends enable the school to achieve for its fu- ture, for our students, and for their families. Until then, just a few highlights to whet your appetite: • Response to our Annual Appeal (Crusader Annual Fund and Related Funds) for 2013–2014 set a new record at $962,000 (+13.6 percent vs. the prior year)! Thank you.

• Of the $962,000, the two most supported (and most necessary) funds remain: – Crusader Annual Fund (unrestricted giving, al- lowing the administration the most flexibility for utilizing these proceeds in areas of greatest need) generated over $500,000. Thank you.
– Student Tuition Assistance Fund (for families who apply for, and produce evidence supporting, financial support from the school for their son) generated a record $250,000 (+15.1 percent vs. the prior year). Thank you.
s this issue of Crusader Magazine goes to press, the administration, faculty, staff and students of Bergen Catholic say “thank you, thank you, thank you” to the many investors who con-
• The last three fiscal years represent the highest three years of Annual Appeal support in the school’s 24 years of recorded giving history. Thank you.
• The Bergen Catholic Endowment reached a new record as of June 30, 2014, at $7.2 million, up from $6.3 million (+ 14.9 percent vs. the prior fiscal year end)! Thank you.
While records are certainly inspiring and necessary to
continue to achieve, it is the use and stewardship of these dollars and records that makes all the difference! Here is a sampling of what these records are enabling: •Major new construction over the summer in Monastery Hall (the area located north of the McKenna-Lawrence Chapel): – Two new classrooms and one new art room/stu- dio with significant additional space availability; also, allowing one extra classroom elsewhere in the school in space vacated by the old art room
– New restrooms in Monastery Hall for students and staff, men and women
– Newly renovated office space for our Nursing staff, Campus Minister, Office of Religious Stud- ies, et al.
– Sprinkler system deployment in all areas of Monastery Hall as required by the town
