Many Gifts, One Nation: A Day of Giving to Catholic Schools Happens January 30, 2018

Catholic schools have provided many families with gifts that persist long after a child has graduated. However, as children and families move beyond their school years, it is easy for them to lose the connection they once had to their schools.

The National Catholic Educational Association’s (NCEA) National Day of Giving, this year themed Many Gifts, One Nation, presents the opportunity for families to be reminded of their Catholic school roots, and give back to the institutions that provided them with so much. FACTS is proud to partner with NCEA for this year’s event, offering its FACTS Giving fundraising product to promote and process donations on this special day.

“Our nation’s Catholic schools do so much for the families and students they serve. We’re excited about this opportunity to partner with NCEA to help those families give back,” said Tim Tewes, Chief Executive Officer of FACTS.

The FACTS Giving platform provides schools the ability to easily accept and process online donations. The unique element of this initiative is that donors will be interacting directly with and giving directly to schools. Dioceses also have the opportunity to participate by creating their own giving page on the platform. Through Many Gifts, One Nation, schools can develop new donor connections and foster existing relationships.

“Our partnership with FACTS allows NCEA to continue our ministry to serve Catholic schools,” said Thomas Burnford, president/CEO of NCEA. “Many Gifts, One Nation will allow schools to connect with new donors and create meaningful relationships within their communities.”

Many Gifts, One Nation falls during National Catholic Schools Week, which runs from January 28 through February 3, 2018. For more information about the Many Gifts, One Nation campaign, visit NCEA’s website. More information about FACTS Giving will be released in the coming months.
