Parents,

Do you shop at Target? Did you know that every time you shop with your REDcard, Target donates 1% of your purchase to Holy Cross. This can quickly add up! Today, we received a check for $204 and thanks to our community, we have received several other checks as well.

Money raised through this initiative will support tuition assistance.

So if you shop at Target and use a REDcard, please be sure to mention Holy Cross at the register!

Thank you for your support.

Pax Christi,
