It takes a caring community to uphold our school, and we’re grateful for the generosity of individuals who contribute their time and talents. Explore how you can support us!

  1. SHS 1K & 5K Walk/Run

    • Experience the excitement of the SHS 1k/5k Run Fundraiser during Freeport Fall Fest! Organized by dedicated parents, it’s a fantastic opportunity to support our community and local businesses while staying active. Lace up your shoes and join us for a memorable event!
  2. Care-A-Thon

    • Students reach out to family, friends, and community for donations and prayer requests. They also engage in a community service event, often cleaning local cemeteries across the tri-parish, followed by a prayer service. This significant fundraiser embodies our commitment to both service and community support.
  3. Catholic United Financial Breakfast and Quilt Raffle

    • Held in early October, this event is planned and organized by the members of Catholic United Financial, Sacred Heart Society and all net-proceeds go directly to Sacred Heart School. Families are encouraged to sell tickets and participate in this event.
  4. Meat Raffle/Horse Races

    • This “fun”raiser is co-sponsored by the Freeport Lions and is a very easy way to help SHS earn money.  Parents are needed to sell raffle tickets the night of the event.
  5. Johnny Holm Fundraiser

    • Each year on the Friday after Thanksgiving, The Friends of Sacred Heart coordinate this fun evening of music and dancing.  Families are encouraged to sell tickets and help where needed. All net proceeds benefit the Technology and Curriculum fund at Sacred Heart School.
  6. Wine and Dine

    • This is the signature event for Sacred Heart School and we rely on our community and families to help make this fundraiser a success.  A dinner committee and an auction committee are formed to help coordinate this fun filled evening that always draws a wonderful crowd.
  7. Catholic United Financial Raffle for Catholic Schools

    • Sponsored entirely by Catholic United Financial, this event ensures that all proceeds go directly to benefit the school. Parents are requested to sell a minimum number of tickets to support this cause.
  8. Purse Bingo

    • Join us for an exciting spring ladies’ night out! Come enjoy bingo with a chance to win fabulous purses, wallets, and more. Additional raffles and prizes available. All proceeds support Sacred Heart School.
  9. Loot for Learning

    • Loot for Learning is Sacred Heart School’s SCRIP program, turning your everyday purchases into support for our school. With local and national merchants participating, each card purchased contributes a percentage to Sacred Heart, quickly adding up to significant support.
  10. Mini Photo Sessions

    • Annually in the fall or early winter, parents have the opportunity to sign up for a Mini Photo Session. All photography time and talent are generously donated, with proceeds benefiting Sacred Heart School. It’s an effortless way to capture beautiful family moments while supporting SHS.
