What is the 1959 Fund?
Our revamped Annual Giving Program. This fund will allow Bishop McGuinness Catholic High School to continue to provide students with innovative academics, virtue and service learning opportunities. Investing in The 1959 Fund is an effortless way for our constituents to show their commitment to the mission of Bishop McGuinness Catholic High School.

How Are Annual Fund Dollars Used?
Funds raised through The 1959 Fund, or any other fundraising efforts at the school, including events supported by parent organizations, are allocated to specific needs that are identified by the administration. Such needs can include tuition affordability, capital and technology improvements, faculty and staff bonuses and development programs, endowments, and other programs and activities that directly impact the lives of our students.
The funds collected from the 2021 Campaign will be used towards Technology. Our goal is $170,000 in forty days! This endeavor will replace our servers and all the technology "behind the walls" at our beloved School. We need your help!
When Are Annual Fund Gifts Due?
The 2021 1959 Fund begins March 17, 2021 and runs for 40 days (lent). All gifts for the current year must be collected by June 30th, the end of our fiscal year, but you can make your gift at any time during the course of the calendar year.
