When you help one Joliet Catholic Academy student, you help us all -  
                                   because we truly do see Joliet Catholic Academy as one, big family!

    We represent the student body at Joliet Catholic Academy when we say how grateful we are for your support…financially, spiritually and socially.  Your encouragement and your backing are important pillars of our education.

    In these hard economic times, we know that you have to make tough decisions about how much and to whom you donate.  We know, because we watch our parents make those same tough decisions.  We are thankful that they’ve made the decision to send us to Joliet Catholic Academy!

    We are asking that you make us, the Joliet Catholic Academy students, one of your priorities this spring by making a gift to the Helping Hands Fund.  Last year, 100 students were aided with over $150,000 in tuition assistance through Helping Hands as well as other Endowed and Non-Endowed Scholarship Funds.

    If you have already given a gift this year, we ask that you consider making another donation to the Helping Hands Fund. We have many families struggling greatly at this time and their children will benefit directly from your generosity.  Each of us is touched by your contribution in a particular way, either directly through the Joliet Catholic Academy Tuition Assistance Programs or indirectly through the continuance of our many co- and extra-curricular programs.

    We, as a student body, have already raised money for tuition assistance by holding a Penny Wars contest this spring and by planning for and participating in a 5K this May to raise more money for the Helping Hands Fund.  We don’t want to lose any of our friends because their family struggled at some point during their child’s education at Joliet Catholic Academy.  Please join us in this effort!

    We appreciate your support and assure you of our prayers.

Thank you from each and every one of us.
