Dear Cristo Rey Family,<br />

One year ago, Cristo Rey Philadelphia temporarily shuttered its doors as a result of the<br />

coronavirus. As time went on, it became clear that the p<strong>and</strong>emic was not going away<br />

quickly, posing many new challenges <strong>and</strong> disruptions for our families <strong>and</strong> alumni.<br />

During this unprecedented time, we turned to our community of supporters for help<br />

<strong>and</strong> were humbled by the outpouring of generosity. You stepped up in an incredible<br />

way, donating $140,000 to our <strong>Community</strong> <strong>Emergency</strong> <strong>Fund</strong> for Cristo Rey families<br />

<strong>and</strong> alumni.<br />

Our School Counseling <strong>and</strong> College Counseling Teams worked one-on-one with<br />

families <strong>and</strong> alumni who were struggling with financial hardships to provide them<br />

with targeted support from the <strong>Fund</strong> based on their needs. Because of your kindness,<br />

we can continue to ensure that the basic needs of our students <strong>and</strong> alumni are met<br />

so they can continue to pursue their educational opportunities <strong>and</strong> stay focused<br />

on learning.<br />

Sincerely,<br />

<strong>Community</strong> <strong>Emergency</strong> <strong>Fund</strong> Co-Leaders<br />
