You did it!

Thanks to alumni and friends, the light at Immaculate Heart of Mary School shines brighter than ever. Alumni from across the decades rose to the challenge, donating over $10,000 in support of IHMS families.

Thanks to a matching gift from BCU Wealth Management and BCU Foundation, those gifts have doubled in impact to $20,000.

This support is vital to open the doors of opportunity for more than 80 children who need financial help to attend IHMS this year.

On November 4, 2025, our friends from BCU visited IHMS to present their $10,000 gift in person.

From the very beginning (120 years ago!) the school has been a place where faith, culture, and compassion come together to shape young hearts and minds.

Your generosity ensures that this tradition continues, helping families who need it most and lighting the way for future generations of students. Thank you!
