Foundation
Founded in the early 1980's, The Butte Central Education Foundation was established to advance the goals of the Butte Central Catholic School System. Our primary purposes are to raise funds for the operating budgets of Butte Central Catholic Schools and to strengthen the future of our schools through endowment funding.
The Foundation serves as the cornerstone of fundraising in the Butte Central Catholic School System. Funds raised annually by the Foundation are used to meet the costs of education that are not covered by tuition and parish subsidies.
Total Foundation Impact 2018-2019:
$ 1,019,207.00
Memorial Program
The Butte Central Foundation recognizes all of those who are no longer with us. We accept donations on behalf of individuals and will post obituaries upon request.
Funding Our Schools
“Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me.” (Mathew 25:40) There is little you could do that would have more impact on the lives of those in our community, than to share your charitable dollars with Butte Central Catholic Schools. Your donation will help change the trajectory of not only our students but their entire families as well. Thank you for considering a gift today!
