Midlands Gives
On May 7, 2024, Cardinal Newman will participate in Midlands Gives. Midlands Gives is a region-wide initiative that brings the community together to raise money and awareness for local nonprofits in the Midlands.
Our community support for this event has significantly grown over the past few years and therefore has become a very important fundraising tool for the school. This year we are very excited to announce that we have a $50,000 matching gift from Mr. Joe Tronco Jr., CN Class of 1962, and his wife Kathy Tronco. Help us secure this matching gift by donating.
In addition to our matching gift, Mr. and Mrs. Robert Leichtle have donated $10,000 to add to our one-day total on May 7th. Cardinal Newman School has the potential to raise over $110,000 with your support.
- Early Giving is April 1 - May 6
- Midlands Gives Day of Giving is May 7
Midlands Gives Prizes
During Midlands Gives, contributions of just $10 or more are amplified through sponsored prize incentives thanks to the Community Foundation's In Good Company Network made up of charitably-minded, local businesses.
Help Cardinal Newman win the Get Up & Give $2,000 by donating on May 7, between 6am - 10am. This prize is awarded to an organization with the highest number of unique donors in the first four hours of Midlands Gives. A unique donor is a name and credit card number. You can make multiple donations with different cards and still be considered a unique donor. Cardinal Newman has won this prize for the past three years. Help us keep the winning streak going!
