Fundraising Obligations
Hudson Catholic strives to keep tuition as low as possible for our school families. However, each year we need to make up the deficit between what is received in tuition and fees and the actual cost of educating a student. Tuition and fees cover approximately 85% of the actual cost of educating a student. The remaining 15% of the cost is paid for by philanthropic support.
To help offset this cost, each family is required to complete a $280 Family Fundraising Obligation (FFO) over the course of the school year. There are two ways in which families can meet this obligation.

Option 1
Families participate in the school’s Tuition Raffle – 100% of the amount in ticket sales will qualify for the FFO. The raffle usually takes place on the Thursday or Friday after the Thanksgiving break.
Students will receive an envelope in their homerooms approximately 4-6 weeks before the raffle. Three booklets of tickets along with instructions will be included in each envelope. Although each family is given 30 tickets to sell, you are only obligated to sell 28 of those tickets. Once tickets are sold, they can be returned to the Advancement office, Rm. 105A. Additional tickets will be available once the initial tickets allotted have been sold and returned to the Advancement office. All tickets must be returned (whether sold or not) to the Advancement office by the Tuesday before the raffle. The ticket price is $10.
The winner of the TUITION RAFFLE will be drawn at the end of the school day and will be livestreamed on our Facebook page. posted on our social media, and the video will be posted on our YouTube channel. We will immediately notify the winner by phone after the drawing and then post it on our social media and YouTube channel. The winner may choose between two prize options: FULL TUITION to Hudson Catholic for the next school year, OR a $5,000 Visa/Mastercard gift card.
If families do not sell 28 tickets ($280) or elect to NOT Participate in the raffle. If you sell less than 28 tickets, the balance must be paid BEFORE Mid-Term Exams begin.

Option 2
Option 2 is for families that do not sell 28 tickets ($280) or elect to NOT Participate in the raffle. Families make either a one-time $280 payment to the school or make payments over the course of the first semester. Payments can be made via check, cash, or credit card. Please designate Family Fundraising in the memo of your payment.
* Please note that the Family Fundraising fee is mandatory and that this obligation must be paid before Mid-Term Exams begin.
