ANNuAl FuNd CAmpAIGN in Full Swing for the 2012-2013 School Year The Fund for Good Counsel (or Annual Fund) sustains every student by providing critical resources for financial assistance, learning enhancements, extracurricular programs, teacher and staff salaries, building services and much more. Contributions to the Fund help Good Counsel offer life-changing experiences and top quality academics for each of our students. Support of the Fund for Good Counsel is a vote of confidence in the school and the students and an investment in their education. The Parents Annual Fund campaign is being led by Dan ’82 and Deb Corr, parents of Katie ’15. Phonathons and mailings are helping to generate parent support. Melissa Huey-Burns, English Resource Chair, and Bill Mooney ’68, Accounts Payable Manager, stepped up to serve as co-chairs of the faculty/staff campaign. A number of faculty and staff members wrote inspirational letters to share why they support the fund. To date, 62% of faculty and staff have made a gift or a pledge to the 2012-2013 Fund for GC. Chris Bowers ’90 and Maria Morris Bowers ’90 are serving as the alumni chairs for this year’s Annual Fund. Mailings and phonathons are underway to help increase the number of alumni who support Good Counsel. Board Member Nancy Wheeler and her husband Gary, parents of Gary ’00, Stephen ’03 and Claire ’07, are encouraging parents of alumni to remain connected and involved in GC, as our Parents of Alumni Chairs. Grandparent Chair Frank Lozupone, parent of Michael ’76, Frank ’79 and Joseph ’81 and grandparent of eight from the classes of ’03, ’06, and ’09, wrote a heart-felt letter to other grandparents to encourage support for the Fund for Good Counsel. If you have not made a gift or pledge to this year’s campaign, please use the envelope included in the Counselor or make your donation online by visiting www.olgchs.org/giving. Questions Call Ann Kerrigan, Director of Annual Giving at 240 283-3366 or email her at Kerrigan@olgchs.org. ✦ Ann Kerrigan joined the Advancement team at Good Counsel in June as the Director of Annual Giving.
