After OMPH School’s success in the 2020 ExtraGive, we set some lofty goals for 2021:
Raise $200,000 in 24 hours.
Finish in the Top Ten of all organizations for dollars raised.
Thanks to the generosity and commitment of the OMPH School community, we not only achieved our goals – we crushed them! As the clock struck midnight on November 19, 2021, OMPH School finished 8th among the 516 participating organizations, placing it in the top 2% of all non-profits in Lancaster County.
After prizes and stretch funds were added to the generosity of our donors, we reached a grand total of $235,595.67 – a whopping 44% increase over the $162,969.88 we raised in 2020 – wow!
The Fund for OMPH School, which includes gifts from the ExtraGive, makes a difference for each of our students every day. Here are just a few examples of the initiatives our donors are supporting:
Opening the doors to a Catholic education by providing over $140,000 in tuition assistance this year.
Continuing physical improvements to our school building including lighting upgrades and enhancements in the classrooms.
New programs and initiatives, including our expanded Preschool program, which directly support our efforts to further our mission.
