On behalf of all of the Bonner & Prendie students, parents, faculty, staff, and community, I would like to extend a sincere Thank You to all of our supporters who made 2014 - 2015 a special year. The amount of support we received allowed us to continue to move B&P forward, and position us to keep providing a great Catholic education for those in Delaware County and beyond.
A record high in both dollars raised ($417,737) and donors participating (1,631) in the Annual Appeal, and a $300,000 increase in funding through the EITC/OSTC Tax Credit Program highlight the support we received from so many of you.
Alumni groups and committees played a vital role in our success as well; events such as the Fr. Bill Atkinson Shake Raffle and Roll, Friar Fest XXVI, Bonner Hall of Fame, Beach Blast, Benefactors Mass and Brunch , Nicole Gallo Sunshine and Bubbles 5k, Alumni Career Day, Music on the Stairs, Anthony Becht Football Golf Outing, and 10 Class reunions (just to name a few), raised funds for B&P along with enhancing alumni and community spirit. Many thanks to all of our alumni, parents, and community volunteers. Your hours and hours of work make a lasting impression on our school and truly make Bonner & Prendie the community it is!
Partnerships with many other groups have been a major influence on Bonner & Prendie this year. We continue to work with both the Faith in the Future Foundation and BLOCS to help formulate long term strategic plans and provide tuition assistance to those in need. Organizations such as the Howley Family Foundation, The Fr. Bill Atkinson O.S.A. Foundation, and The Maguire Foundation have also invested in what Bonner & Prendie is doing through scholarship and tuition assistance help. These partnerships, some relatively new, have grown quickly over the past few years and we look forward to continuing our fruitful work together.
As you can see from from this newsletter - the opportunity and success that is being realized at Bonner & Prendie everyday is not accomplished alone. Please know that your support makes a real impact on our students and community, and that it is greatly appreciated by all.
I hope you continue to enjoy the summer and we look forward to seeing many of you at the Beach Blast All-Class Reunion at LaCosta Lounge in Sea Isle on Saturday August 1st!
For Bonner & Prendie,
Scott Fremont '98
Director of Institutional Advancement
