Deeply Rooted, Growing Stronger Campaign Update

Our capital campaign has crossed the $2 million level, fueled by a strong foundation of support from across the Catholic Community Schools family. Thank you to all the generous donors who have lifted us to this level. The Coborn’s Million Dollar Challenge was a huge success, inspiring over 150 donors to support the campaign, surpassing the $500,000 challenge amount! This generous gift, spearheaded by Honorary Chairs Becky and Chris Coborn and embraced by the entire Coborn family, stands as a powerful endorsement of our mission and a resounding vote of confidence in our future. We extend our deepest gratitude to the Coborn family for this great blessing. 

IMMEDIATE EFFECT 

Gifts to the campaign have already made an impact on our staff and operations! Campaign proceeds will help our elementary educators to participate in the NCEA (National Catholic Education Association) national convention in Minneapolis in April of 2026. Other dollars have been earmarked for the next several months of loan payments, reducing the need to burden our operational budgets.  

Every additional contribution will be a vital catalyst in propelling us toward our ultimate goal of ensuring the lasting legacy of Catholic education in the St. Cloud area!
