The Partners in the Spirit Annual Fund Campaign seeks to enhance the experience of our students through the generous support of our "extended family", our donors. We believe that you have the right to know specifically what accomplishments your gift makes possible and that you have a choice in directing how those gifts are to be used. We hope that you welcome this opportunity to provide additional support. Our goal is a partnership in which your commitment to the system is made visible and tangible every day in campus life at St. Edmond. Your investment in the Saint Edmond family is vital to keeping our programs excellent, successful, and attractive.
​
There are various areas where you can choose to direct your gift:
​
-
Unrestricted Gifts - This fund is the backbone of our system. These gifts support the "necessities" that occur annually, items from building and grounds needs, technology advancements, and staff instructional needs to the basic utility costs. These unrestricted gifts are essential to our operating fund. If your interest in Saint Edmond is in operations, an unrestricted gift to Partners in the Spirit would be a great choice for you.

Ralph Schulte Service Scholarship Fund - Ralph Schulte was a dedicated faculty member of Saint Edmond, who along with his wife Becky had 6 children graduate from Saint Edmond. A major part of Ralph's duties at the school was assigning students service work in the school and in the community. Service to mankind was a passion of Ralph's and after his passing, his family created the Service Scholarship Fund in his honor. The purpose of this fund is that an annual scholarship, initially in the amount of $1,000, will be awarded to a Saint Edmond junior who has displayed outstanding service. The scholarship is to be used for Saint Edmond tuition, thus keeping the funding "in-house", so to speak. In addition, the fund seeks contributions from other supporters who believe in service to mankind, potentially raising either the amount or the number of scholarships awarded annually. Msgr. McEvoy & Kollasch Tuition Funds - These gifts can make a difference for a student being able to afford the high-quality education provided by St. Edmond. These funds will be allotted for tuition assistance.
