Holy Redeemer Catholic School
Annual Report 2021—2022
Letter from the Principal Dear Friends of Holy Redeemer, It is once again, with grateful hearts and tremendous pride, that we present to you the 20212022 Annual Report for Holy Redeemer Catholic School. We remain faithful to our obligation to our families and our community to effectively manage the financial gifts you have made available to us. This report reflects that commitment to our financial prudency, as well as our commitment to educating our students in knowledge and in faith. Catholic education is the work the entire community who support us in our mission to care for and educate the children entrusted to us. In the pages of this document, you will see some of what we have accomplished with your support. Ever mindful of our responsibilities as stewards of your generosity and of the gift we have been given in our students and our school, we strive to use our treasure well and provide for the present as we plan for the future. Our success has been and continues to be a direct reflection of the support of our community. The replacement of flooring in the pod areas and the installation of interior and exterior security cameras are just two of the many ways your contributions have made a difference in this past year. Through your prayers and through your support of our Annual Fund, our Gala and raffles, i-Give-Catholic, GRACE Scholars, or other giving opportunities, we work together to build the future of Church and of our world through the life-long value of a Catholic education. Whether this is your first year at Holy Redeemer or whether you have been a long-time supporter, whether you are a staff member or volunteer, whether you are a current or alumni parent, an alumni student, a grandparent, or a friend of Holy Redeemer, you make a difference for our students. We are grateful for your continued support and ask that you keep the students, staff and families as well as the benefactors of Holy Redeemer in your prayers.
With Gratitude, Lauren Schell Principal

Service Projects Holy Redeemer Catholic School is a faith-centered community committed to living the principles of the Catholic Tradition rooted in the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Our school community takes seriously Jesus’ command to live the Corporal and Spiritual Works of Mercy. From our kindergarteners to eighth graders, Holy Redeemer Catholic School’s mission is evident. Kindergarten students begin their journey of service by creating Christmas stockings filled with items for Catholic Charities’ Refugee Resettlement children to use in their new homes. First Graders multiply their talents and collect funds to purchase items needed by children in the Mustard Seed communities of Nicaragua. Second Graders reach out to their home and school communities by organizing a coat drive to collect coats for children and adults being assisted by the North Georgia area St. Vincent de Paul Society. Third Graders realize the potential within themselves to help others less fortunate by walking in the shoes of children who have been suddenly removed from their families. They use their talents to buy backpacks and items needed by the children assisted by the Foster Care Support Foundation. Fourth Graders heed the call of Pope Francis by practicing stewardship of God’s creation through a year-long recycling project on the Holy Redeemer campus. Fifth Graders develop a business plan to reach out to their school and neighborhoods to collect new socks, pajamas and underwear for needy families received by North Fulton Community Charities. In Middle School, the students begin a formal program focused on the Corporal Works of Mercy. Sixth Graders work on projects designed to help the homeless in our local community. Seventh Graders explore the issue of hunger among low-income Georgians in the context of their faith and raise funds for local food banks by participating in a fundraiser walk to support the ministries associated with Atlanta Food Bank. Eighth Graders host a fundraiser Dress Down Day and a baked goods raffle to support the life of the unborn babies of clients at the Pregnancy Aid Clinic. They also serve as hosts and hostesses for our annual Mardi Gras dinner. Our mission of service for others reaches a new level every February. In place of Valentine’s Day parties, every Holy Redeemer student participates in a Service from the Heart hour. Students work together in small groups on various service projects to emphasize the love of Christ for everyone, especially those most in need. Holy Redeemer students also conduct three all-school food drives during the year to support the food pantries of neighboring parishes and organizations.
Ways to Give When considering gifts to Holy Redeemer Catholic School, there are many opportunities that will not only benefit the school’s exceptional programs, but may also provide a tax-deductible contribution that is allowed by law. To learn more about ways to give to the school and its mission, contact: Jennifer Leonard, Director of Advancement at (770)-410-4056 ext. 216, JLeonard@hrcatholicschool.org.
Annual Fund
The Annual Fund is the foundation of giving to Holy Redeemer Catholic School. As with most private schools, tuition does not cover the full cost of educating our students. Giving to the Annual Fund each year bridges the gap between tuition income and the full cost to educate our students. Each year, the Annual Fund is an indispensable part of the school’s operating budget, enabling the school to fulfill its commitment to academic programs.
Cheryl Hogan Tuition Assistance Fund
In March of 2019, this fund was established by the Hogan family in memory of Cheryl Hogan, our former Business Manager, in recognition of her passion for helping families in need provide a Catholic education for their children at Holy Redeemer. To donate to this fund, visit the Support section of our website.
Annual Gala and Raffle
These events held throughout the school year are the only fundraising events for Holy Redeemer.
Cash Contributions
Unrestricted gifts of cash are the most popular and convenient way to support Holy Redeemer Catholic School. Gifts can be made in a single contribution or pledged and paid in installments.
Matching Gifts
Today many businesses have matching gift programs that will double or even triple an employee contribution. Some companies match the gifts of spouses and retirees as well, greatly increasing the impact of a donation. Matching gift information is available from your Human Resources office or the Advancement Office.
Gifts in Kind
These non-cash gifts are items that the school needs and uses including, but not limited to, computer equipment, office equipment or printing services.
Securities
Gifts of securities, stock or bonds benefit the donor and the school. This type of gift is tax-deductible and the donor may avoid paying capital gains tax on the appreciated stock or security.
Planned Giving
The most common planned gift is through a donor bequest, trusts, gift annuities, real estate, memorial gifts, life insurance and other financial instruments. A codicil naming Holy Redeemer Catholic School as a beneficiary can be added to an existing will.
GRACE Scholars, Inc.
Georgia taxpayers can donate to GRACE Scholars and qualify for the Georgia Private School Tax Credit. Donors receive 100% credit against their Georgia State tax liability. Money that would have gone to the State of Georgia is now supporting Catholic schools in Georgia. Please visit GRACE Scholars at www.gracescholars.org for more information.
Holy Redeemer Catholic School Endowment w/Catholic Foundation of North GA An endowment fund was established with an initial gift from Joseph Mitchell. This fund is in trust for Holy Redeemer through the Catholic Foundation of North Georgia. Additional donations can be made through the Catholic Foundation.
Donor List The Annual Report was prepared by the Advancement Office. Every effort was made to accurately list all contributions made through June 30, 2022. Should any inaccuracies or omissions appear, please accept our apologies.

#iGiveCatholic Holy Redeemer Catholic School participated in #iGiveCatholic on November 30, 2021. Many have looked for a way to support the Catholic educational system that helped form their lives and the lives of their families. #iGiveCatholic, Giving Tuesday provides the opportunity. Our overall goal for #iGiveCatholic was $7,500, which we surpassed. Monies were used to purchase two Epson Pro Projectors to project backgrounds during school musical performances. We are truly blessed by our school community! Lauren Schell, Principal and Jennifer Leonard, Director of Advancement
