Annual Fund
Letter from the Annual Fund Chairs
Dear Oakcrest Families,
What an exciting way to begin the new year! When we agreed to lead this year’s Annual Fund efforts, we had no idea that our Oakcrest community would have the opportunity and be challenged to purchase the 2.2 acres adjacent to our soccer/lacrosse field that would complete our current campus footprint. And what a campaign it was! We are so excited and humbled by the generosity that led our community to raise $1.2 million in less than a month to make that purchase a reality!
However, as exciting as that campaign was for the future of Oakcrest there are still many priorities we need to support during this academic year:What an exciting way to begin the new year!

- Academic and Athletic resources and equipment;
- Transportation for extracurricular activities and school excursions;
- Professional Development for our incredible faculty and staff;
- And the always important tuition assistance that is necessary to ensure all of our families can continue to receive Oakcrest’s intellectual, spiritual and personal formation.
None of this is possible without the ongoing generosity of Oakcrest parents, alumnae, and the broader Oakcrest community. As you may already know, tuition only covers about 87% of an Oakcrest education each year for all students, and unlike public or parochial schools, Oakcrest does not receive supplemental finances from the government or any diocese. Therefore, Oakcrest counts on the success of our Annual Fund to ensure all of our students thrive.
This year our target for the Annual Fund is to raise $550,000. Please consider joining us as we contribute to Oakcrest’s current and future success. You can be certain that your gift to the Oakcrest Annual Fund will positively affect our girls and ensure that they become graduates who will shape the culture in so many positive ways.
Warm regards,
Michelle and Jay Gress (Helen ’27, Anne ’25)
