Sponsorships from the Cincinnati Archdiocese

As a result of the One Faith, One Hope, One Love capital campaign that took place in the Archdiocese over the past three years the Archdiocese will again be offering a scholarship to families attending Catholic Schools, grades K-12. Information can be obtained through the website  http://catholicbestchoice.org/  Parents apply for the grant through the St .Charles FACTS Tuition Management and Grant & Aide website,  https://online.factsmgt.com/signin/3XKP4  by January 25, 2019. Those families who submit their 2017 tax returns and successfully register will be eligible for the Archdiocesan assistance program. Those families eligible for Ohio EdChoice Scholarships are not eligible for the Archdiocesan assistance. The fund is expected to give out two million dollars this year. This current school year 12 students received in excess of $11,000 in total scholarship funds.
Thank You St. Nick!
Dear St. Charles Families,
Please extend to your students our heartfelt thank you for almost
900 pounds of food donated to the Harmony Creek Food Pantry.
Last year was 500 pounds, so a job very well done. Many of the neighbors in the St. Charles area will benefit from your generosity.
St. Charles can be proud of their hard work to help those fighting poverty. Also, we loved the decorated boxes!
Sincerely,
Carolyn Root, President Diakonia Neighborhood Outreach

The St. Charles School Used Book Fair will be during Catholic Schools Week, January 28, 2019 - February 1, 2019. As you prepare your home for the holiday and Christmas season please consider gathering children's book to donate.
We will be collecting baby books through junior high books. No adult books please. Collection dates will be the week before the Used Book Fair. The books are sold to the students at bargain prices, $.50 - $.05. The goal is to get the books into our students hands and build a love of reading.
If you like to help with organizing the Used Book please contact me at  mbrown@stcharleskettering.org .
