On Perseverance
I plead with you‒never, ever give up on hope, never doubt, never tire, And never become discouraged. Be not afraid. ‒St. John Paul the Great
As we experience the challenges of the COVID-19 pandemic, many of you have reached out and asked, “How can we help?” Your selflessness during such a time of uncertainty is inspiring, and your support is definitely needed. Not knowing how many additional families may require financial support in the form of tuition assistance or how Lansing Catholic’s budget will be impacted by this crisis, we have established the Perseverance Fund. This does not include cleaning supplies, face masks, disinfectants, and more, that we’ve already purchased, to keep our students and faculty safe.
Please know that your gift will be greatly needed and appreciated in the months to come. For additional information contact Jean Morgan in Advancement at jean.morgan@lansingcatholic.org or 517-267-2114.
Here are our urgent needs:
- Desks – at a minimum we need 150, 300 would be ideal… average price $150 each – we need to order these by August 5th! These will be great tables after the pandemic is over too…$45,000

- Tuition Assistance for families in need (indicate tuition assistance on gift please)
