About This Cause
Annual Appeal The Annual Appeal is an unrestricted source of income that gives the school the opportunity to allocate funds where the need is greatest on an annual basis. Peoria Notre Dame relies on gifts to the Annual Appeal as well as tuition, fees and proceeds from special events to meet operating costs each year. Each gift to the Annual Appeal helps cover the difference between tuition charged and the actual cost to educate each PND student. Peoria Notre Dame Scholarship Fund The Peoria Notre Dame Scholarship Fund provides financial assistance to our students and families to help pay for the students’ education expenses. Peoria Notre Dame provides over $500,000 each year in financial assistance to our students. Peoria Notre Dame Endowed Scholarship Peoria Notre Dame High School provides the opportunity to establish a named scholarship. A minimum endowment of $30,000 is required. Endowment pledges may be paid in a single or multiple installments over a three year period. Ninety-five percent of the income from the fund will be used by Peoria Notre Dame annually to award scholarships to current student(s) based on financial needs and selection criteria, if designated by the endowment donor.

The foundation consists of many funds which provide financial support to the school in the form of operating funds, faculty support, fine arts support and tuition assistance including: The Livingston Teacher Fund The Livingston Teacher Fund was established in 1997 by two generous benefactors of Peoria Notre Dame to supplement the salaries of Peoria Notre Dame faculty and staff. Each year 95% of the earnings of the fund are distributed to the returning full-time staff who have completed at least one year of service. The Shamrock Fund The Shamrock Fund, similar to the PND Annual Appeal, provides the administration and finance committee of the school with an annual supplementary source of unrestricted income for operating expenses of the school. The Livingston Auditorium Fund This endowed fund exists to provide funds for the maintenance of and improvements to the school’s auditorium. Teacher Continuing Education Fund This fund provides tuition reimbursement to any full-time teacher or staff who has completed two or more years of service to Peoria Notre Dame. The employees must be working towards a Masters degree or higher that mutually benefits the employee and the school. Peoria Notre Dame will provide 50% of the cost of tuition associated with each class. Various Scholarship Funds Several funds exist within the foundation that provides for specific assistance to students based on certain criteria set forth in the underlying donor agreements. The funds are distributed at the end of each year to the school to help fund the $500,000 of financial assistance awarded annually to our students and families.
