How Your Gift Makes An Impact
The Holy Spirit Educational Foundation is a separately incorporated, tax exempt, 501(c)(3) charitable trust established in 1988 to provide financial support to Holy Spirit Parish. With the mission to “help make Catholic educational opportunities affordable to all members of the Parish of the Holy Spirit,” the Foundation has provided the parish with more than $2.5 million over the years. Currently annual funding support is directed primarily to tuition assistance for over 80 families who might not otherwise have the option of choosing a Catholic education. Financial disbursements also fund religious education opportunities for adults and youth of the Parish.
All gifts to the endowment fund are permanently retained and invested. Revenue generated by careful stewardship of this investment is disbursed annually to support education Holy Spirit. Since donations made to the Foundation are never spent, they become “Forever Gifts,” providing financial stability and security in perpetuity.

The Holy Spirit Educational Foundation believes that cost should not prevent anyone from receiving a faith-based education. With the mission to “enhance Catholic education opportunities and help make them more affordable at Holy Spirit Parish,” the Foundation has provided over $2 million in support over the years. That support is directed toward tuition assistance and providing opportunities for both the adults and youth of the parish to participate in a variety of faith formation programs.
The Education Foundation is directed toward tuition assistance and providing opportunities for both the adults and youth of our parish community to participate in a variety of faith formation programs.
Foundation Impact:
On October 29, 2025, the Foundation provided $246,500 to the school for tuition assistance, school operations, and faith formation.
For the 2025–2026 school year, 48+ families received $86,000 in financial aid.
The remaining $160,500 went directly to the school/faith formation to keep tuition costs lower for all families.
Without that support, tuition rates would have to increase significantly.
