Annual Fund
The Sacred Heart Academy Annual Fund is the most important gift you can make each year. The Annual Fund supports the entire Sacred Heart experience and enhances all aspects of life at the Academy, including academics, arts, athletics and more. Your gift has an immediate and direct effect on today's students and an immeasurable impact on their future.
The Annual Fund also supports our Tuition Assistance Program, allowing more young women to attend the Academy who qualify academically, but are in need of financial aid.

"With a focus on faith formation, and helping young women achieve academic excellence, Sacred Heart Academy is a place where they discover their true sense of self. Whether in a classroom, on an athletic field, or as a member of a club or activity, students at SacredHeart are provided with the opportunity to grow spiritually, academically, and socially, so they become the best version of themselves. My husband and I are proud every day to say that our daughters are members of the strong Sacred Heart Academy tradition."
