Our story
A promise to St. Gerald families.
St. Gerald School has formed students in Oak Lawn for more than 90 years. As the cost of Catholic education rises, so does the risk that families are priced out of a school they love.
The foundation was created to change that — a dedicated, independent 501(c)(3) raising funds so tuition assistance, faith formation, and a strong campus are always there for the children who need them. Our flagship gala launches that work in April 2027.
What we stand for
Three commitments
Rooted in faith
We support an education that forms the whole child — mind, character, and spirit — in the Catholic tradition.
Built on access
Tuition assistance keeps St. Gerald open to families who choose it, regardless of what they can pay.
Powered by community
Alumni, parents, parishioners, and neighbors giving together for the next generation of Giants.
