Support Holy Innocents Seniors' Rome Pilgrimage

Dear Family and Friends,

We are reaching out with a heartfelt plea to help our Holy Innocents seniors embark on a once-in-a-lifetime pilgrimage to Rome during the Jubilee Year and Holy Week 2025. This extraordinary journey is more than just a senior trip—it’s an opportunity for our students to deepen their faith, walk in the footsteps of saints, experience the heart of the Catholic Church, and attend mass at the Vatican during one of the most sacred times in the liturgical calendar.

Our Goal

We aim to raise $15,000 by Sunday, February 23 to ensure every senior can participate in this transformative pilgrimage. These funds will cover flights, hotel accommodations, transportation, and meals for the group. This $15,000 goal is especially important because it will help us match a generous donation that brings us closer to covering the full cost of the trip.

Why Your Support Matters

Many of our seniors come from large, low-income families and receive financial aid to attend Holy Innocents Classical Academy. While we’ve hosted several fundraisers, we are significantly behind our goal, and time is running out. Without your help, our students may miss this life-changing opportunity to journey to Rome during the Jubilee Year—a rare event that happens only once every 25 years—and Holy Week, the holiest week of the year for Catholics.

A Message from Holy Innocents

Holy Innocents is not just a school; it’s a community dedicated to forming "future saints, faithful scholars, and virtuous citizens." This pilgrimage will bring their education and faith to life in an extraordinary way, inspiring our seniors to boldly live out this mission, equipped with memories and experiences that will shape their faith and character for years to come.

How You Can Help

Your donation, no matter the size, will make a difference. Every dollar brings us closer to making this dream a reality for our seniors. If you’re unable to donate, we humbly ask for your prayers and for you to share this fundraiser with others who might be willing to support these incredible young men and women.

If you want to make a donation of $500 or more please contact Ms. Leana Corral - 7th Grade Homeroom Teacher or Ms. Ruth Cruz - College and Career Counselor, the senior trip facilitators via the Holy Innocents School office.

We are profoundly grateful for your generosity and prayers as we work together to provide this unforgettable and transformative experience for our seniors during this extraordinary Jubilee Year and Holy Week.

In gratitude,

Holy Innocents Seniors & Faculty
