Ss. Dennis and Joseph Catholic Academy Presents Check to Silver Cross

Saints Dennis and Joseph Catholic Academy in Lockport held another COIN WAR fundraiser from pre-school through 8th grade during Catholic Schools Week. In true SDJCA fashion, the school community showed their giving (and competitive) spirit, raising another $2,457.29! Today, they proudly presented a check to Silver Cross Hospital, benefitting The Amy, Matthew & Jay Vana Neonatal Intensive Care Unit. SDJCA continues to do great things together!

A note from Silver Cross:

“Thank you to all the students, faculty and administration at Saints Dennis & Joseph Catholic Academy in Lockport for once again, holding their Coin Wars event to raise funds for the Amy, Matthew and Jay Vana Neonatal Intensive Care Unit during Catholic Schools Week this week. The Coin Wars bring friendly rivalry between the students and teachers to see which team can raise the most money. We are so honored and grateful that the Saints Dennis & Joseph community has thought of our tiniest patients once again. Thank you for your continued generosity. We truly appreciate your support.”
