Annual Appeal-Bridge the Gap

Christ the King's Annual Appeal-Bridge the Gap

We express heartfelt gratitude to each of you for your ongoing prayers, encouragement, and financial support of Christ the King Catholic School (CKCS). Your generosity plays a vital role in the life of our school, and we are truly thankful.

As we strive to keep tuition affordable for our families, there is still a gap between the full cost of educating our students ($3.3 million) and what tuition and the parish subsidy covers ($2.75 million). To bridge this gap, we turn to our supportive community of parishioners, alumni, parents, grandparents, staff, and friends who share our passion for Catholic education. In addition to our fundraising events, Bridge the Gap is our annual appeal for financial support, directly benefiting all areas of school life and enriching the minds, bodies, and spirits of every student.

To meet our $100,000 goal we need the help of everyone contributing at a level that works for their budget. Investing in the future of our children ensures that they have the tools and knowledge to reach their potential. You can donate securely online via PayPal, or mail a check to: Christ the King Catholic School, 1122 Long Ave, Richland, WA 99352 (memo: Bridge the Gap).

The Bridge the Gap campaign runs from December through June, supporting the 2026-2027 school year. With your generous support, we can continue to provide a high-quality Catholic education to families who seek it for their children. Your donation will help us form virtuous leaders prepared to face the challenges of high school and beyond.

"Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world."
-Nelson Mandela. Students at CKCS pursue both academic success and growth in virtue. We are creating the leaders of our future. Your support makes this vision a reality, and I am deeply grateful for your partnership in this important mission.

We pray in thanksgiving for each of you and ask God to bless you and your family abundantly. With gratitude and blessings,

The CKCS Advancement Team
