Our Lady of Fatima Parish School is a unique neighborhood school offering an exceptional, well-rounded Catholic education that prepares students for a lifetime of success.

Like most parochial schools, our school holds tuition at a level that makes it as affordable as possible for parish families. This makes us dependent upon the generosity of our school families, parishioners, and alumni to help cover our actual operating costs. Our school organizes several larger annual fundraising events, as well as additional activities and opportunities throughout the year. Long-term giving opportunities via estate planning are also available.

A general overview of a typical year of giving opportunities is outlined below. More information about our larger efforts, such as the Endowment Fund and Auction, and other year-round fundraising efforts, such as Community Rewards and Scrip gift cards, can be found using the tabs below.

Endowment Fund

Our Lady of Fatima Parish School is a unique neighborhood school offering an exceptional, well-rounded Catholic education that prepares students for a lifetime of success.

Like most parochial schools, our school holds tuition at a level that makes it as affordable as possible for parish families. Our endowment fund, established over 25 years ago, provides support for tuition assistance. This helps ensure that a family’s ability to afford full tuition is not a prohibitive factor. Because of the long-term commitment of this endowment fund, managed by the Fulcrum Foundation and its partners, we can help secure the future of Catholic education here in Magnolia.

Long-term giving opportunities via estate planning or qualified charitable contributions from an IRA are also available.
