Educators frequently dip into their own personal funds to buy items that enhance their classrooms and support student learning. In addition to facility needs, we invited teachers to submit their wish lists so that parents, parishioners, and community members might bless them with a gift for their classroom.
Your gift is 100% tax deductible. Thank you for your consideration of these requests. For more information, please contact Liz Van Leer at shfoundation@gogremlins.com.

Participating Classrooms – Goal $250 per Classroom
Each classroom at Sacred Heart School benefits uniquely from Giving Tuesday support. Classroom funds help teachers purchase hands-on learning materials, updated books, faith-based resources, STEM tools, art supplies, enrichment activities, and organizational aids that directly enhance student learning. Our teachers often spend their own money to provide these essentials, but with your help, we can ensure every classroom is fully equipped. By donating, you support our mission to provide a Christ-centered, enriching education that helps students grow academically, spiritually, and creatively. Your gift helps our teachers create joyful learning environments that reflect the values of Catholic education and empower students to reach their fullest potential.
Editor’s note: If donations toward a wish list item exceed the needed amount, donors will be notified and funding will be redirected toward another priority item. Thank you!
