Walk-a-Thon: April 28, 2023

Walk-a-Thon is our annual student fundraiser – and every dollar raised provides tuition assistance for Bishop Chatard families. We are thrilled to announce that our traditional Walk-a-Thon is back!

Students enjoyed getting back to tradition by raising $28,900 in 2022 and walking 2.6 miles through the Bishop Chatard neighborhood. 83% of our students chose to get involved in raising funds to help 48% of our students with tuition assistance, and in writing personal notes to thank our benefactors for helping provide a remarkable Catholic education and experience for all our students.

The day included the annual talent show, student/faculty kickball game, the physical walk, and an outdoor lunch.
Thank you to everyone for making this such a memorable day.

Thirty-five years ago, Walk-A-Thon was established with a dual purpose: 1) to provide tuition assistance to families and 2) to teach and encourage students about giving something back. This year, with a plan to raise $30,000, we hope to accomplish those same two goals, with every student joining in the effort.
