Dear parents, alumnae and friends of St. Agnes Academy,
For more than 100 years, St. Agnes empowers young women to develop intellectual curiosity, to work for social justice and to act with integrity and compassion. Our young women are leaders and are making a difference in the world today. Since our early years on Fannin Street, we have been blessed with faithful partners like you who support our mission. Your generous gifts continue to keep our doors open, our tuition low, provide for campus improvement projects, enable professional training and education for our teachers and staff, and especially our ability to award student scholarships to ensure more young women can attend the Academy in our second century and beyond.
The Office of Advancement at St. Agnes Academy is dedicated to advancing the Dominican mission through a variety of activities and programs. Our fundraising efforts support the academic, capital and endowment needs to create a learning environment that is optimal for our students. We accomplish this through our Learning Today, Leading Tomorrow Annual Fund, our special events (such as the annual golf tournament and legacy gala), our Sustaining Tomorrow's Promise Major Gifts Campaign and through planned gifts made to the Academy through estate planning.
Supporting St. Agnes is a sound investment in the future of our young women. The dividends your investment reaps are seen in the success of our alumnae. It has been a blessing for me to come back and give back to St. Agnes and to the Dominican Sisters for the education and formation I received from them so many years ago. Please join me in showing our appreciation for the gift St. Agnes is to so many women.
In Veritas,
Elaine Henderson Eichelberger '79
Director of Advancement
