Thank you for visiting my BC Race to Educate fundraising page! It is our 9th annual race and we hope to raise $200,000 this year so we can continue to provide a high-quality education for all, regardless of ability to pay.
Saint Col's is an incredible school. We have over 400 students, from over 32 towns. There are 24 languages spoken in the homes of our students and your support helps them to become smart, well-rounded people who give back to society. Our hallways are full of joy!
Thank you for anything you can contribute. 41% of our students are on need-based financial aid, and thanks to you, we provided $660,000 in aid last year. We anticipate the same next year and hope you can help us make a difference for the kids who need it most.
Gratefully,
Kate

Saint Columbkille Partnership School is a pre-K through Grade 8 Catholic school located in Brighton, MA. Since 1901, Saint Columbkille has been a mainstay within its surrounding community, and has educated children for many generations. In 2018, Saint Columbkille Partnership School was designated as a laboratory school of Boston College's Lynch School of Education and Human Development.
Saint Cols now serves more than 400 students with more than 42 percent receiving financial aid. The BC Race to Educate is our annual fundraiser to support Saint Columbkille Partnership School to give all students access to a high-quality Catholic education.
