22.01.2022 Never more so than right now has the Catholic Education Foundation been called upon to help our students and families in our 150 schools who are in real need. With the current COVID-19 situation and change in the economy, your donation to the Catholic Education Foundation is even more important than ever before. Your donation will help us help students by providing ongoing education, resources and other essentials they would otherwise go without, especially as parents suffer new financial hardships thanks to the loss of employment and other financial strain. Any amount you choose to donate will help a student in need and all donations over $2 are tax-deductible. Donate here: https://www.bpoint.com.au/payments/catheducationfnd
