Testimonials

Jim Farrell

Board Chair, Class of '95

"GO for Catholic Schools is not a gimmick — it's become an essential tool for keeping a Cascia Hall education within reach for many families.

 

With the support of generous donors, Cascia Hall has made the gift of a Catholic, Augustinian education accessible for generations. But that gift is not one that can be taken for granted.



Cascia Hall's need for our generosity continues to grow as the costs to provide a Cascia Hall education continue to climb. That's why the Go for Catholic Schools program is no longer just nice to have — it's critical for keeping Cascia Hall's doors open to any student who aspires to experience the education, community, and faith tradition that Cascia Hall represents."

A message from our Headmaster.

One of the biggest challenges facing Catholic education today is managing tuition. From salaries to materials, schools face difficult choices about rising costs. We face the very real problem of pricing our academic program beyond the reach of most people we are called to serve. 


Cascia Hall has consistently provided financial resources to make our school accessible to families, especially those most in need. The generosity of our benefactors provides financial resources to help make our tuition affordable. However, the need grows each year. 


The funds we receive from the Go for Catholic Schools Tax Credit Program have been a wonderful blessing. They directly assist our efforts to provide the best Cascia Hall experience for all our families, especially those with demonstrated need. Funds received from this program directly benefit our families and expand the impact we make in the lives of our students. This Go for Catholic Schools Tax Credit Program is a commitment to the value of Catholic education and a tool that provides for the future of the Church and our society. 


Thank you for your support of our mission as a Christian community and your commitment to helping provide a Cascia Hall education to anyone who hopes for it. 


Sincerely, 


Fr. Jack Tierney, OSA, PhD

Headmaster

GO for Cascia FAQs

  • Can I contribute both individually/jointly and through my business?

    Yes, you can contribute both individually (as a single person) or jointly (as a married couple) and through a legal business entity that you control.  Either way, you or your business can earn a 75% state income tax credit.  The business contribution route can be better beacause it allows you to contribute at a higher level and to gain a tax deduction in addition to the tax credit which maximizes your tax savings.

  • How can a tax credit save me more than a tax deduction?

    Think of a tax credit as a gift card that you can use to pay your taxes. Tax credits directly reduce your tax burden on a dollar-for-dollar basis. The value of a tax deduction depends on several factors specific to each taxpayer. A tax deduction only reduces the base of your taxable income and therefore only indirectly reduces your tax burden by saving you cents on the dollar.

  • Where does my contribution go?

    Your contribution through GO for Cascia funds need-based financial support for students to attend Cascia Hall Preparatory School.  By law, you cannot designate a specific student or family to benefit from your contribution.  


    In addition, your GO contribution helps Cascia Hall achieve key aspects of its strategic plan and mission for the community, enhances the overall quality of a Cascia Hall education, and preserves the ability of Cascia Hall to serve students and families for generations to come.
