Guerin Catholic has partnered with the Institute for Quality Education (IQE) as our official Scholarship Granting Organization (SGO). An SGO is a state-designated 501(c)(3) that provides financial needs-based scholarships to students enrolled in non-public schools. This program is not only available to individuals, but to companies as well. 16 IMPACT MAGAZINE • FALL 2020 Stories of courage, support and gratitude are all around us during these unprecedented times. We have answered the call as a nation to care for each other. And we, as a Guerin Catholic community, have answered that call to care for our families in need with the help of God’s intercession and support of GC Cares. GC Cares was established in the spring of 2020 as an arm of the Providence Fund to provide emergency tuition assistance to Guerin Catholic families financially affected by the pandemic. Thanks to the generous support of 105 donors, 31 Guerin Catholic families were provided financial support to meet the financial obligations of a Guerin Catholic education. The total amount of tuition assistance given was $83,393. 19-20 Annual Report of Gifts The Fund-A-Need at the Guerin Catholic Gala in February 2020 raised over $35,000 for 175 new choir robes.
