Jessica LairdExecutive Director of Advancement
The Community Partners Program was established in 2008 as a way to build sustainable, mutually beneficial partnerships between Our Lady of Good Counsel High School and alumni, parent, and locally affiliated businesses. Revenue from partners facilitates the growth of Good Counsel’s endowment, which secures the future of the school and makes it possible for us to offer more competitive financial aid packages.
There are a number of ways your organization can get started partnering with Our Lady of Good Counsel High School including gift-in-kind donations, volunteer engagement, career mentorships, etc.
