At Immaculate Conception Academy, giving is not just something we do; it is a reflection of who we are. This Giving Tuesday, we did not ask for money. Instead, we lifted up the stories of our students, who are being formed in faith, love, and service. We called it “Formed to Give,” and it was a beautiful celebration of mission in action.
From handwritten thank-you notes to heartfelt testimonies of service, our students reminded us – and we hope reminded you – that generosity is a way of life. Their actions, rooted in the Gospel, reflect the words of Christ: “Whatever you did for one of these least brothers of mine, you did for me” (Matthew 25:40).
Through daily prayer, outreach to those in need, and acts of kindness both in the classroom and beyond, our students are living out the mission of ICA. This Giving Tuesday, we simply wanted to share their joyful witness and thank you – our community of supporters – for making this possible.
Giving Tuesday Was the Why. The Annual Appeal Is the How.
Giving Tuesday allowed us to shine a light on the mission of ICA: forming young hearts in faith and generosity. But how do we continue this mission? That is the purpose of our Annual Appeal.
The Annual Appeal sustains the very heart of what we do each day. It supports the classrooms where students learn to pray, think critically, and grow in wisdom and virtue. It provides the resources for service and outreach that shape compassionate leaders. It enables us to form disciples who are prepared to go into the world to serve others in Christ’s name.
If Giving Tuesday showed the fruit of our mission, the Annual Appeal is the soil in which that mission is planted and allowed to grow.
We invite you to partner with us. Your support allows Immaculate Conception Academy to remain a place where faith is lived, truth is taught, and students are formed to give – just as Christ gave Himself for us.
