Celebrate Catholic Education Sunday November 22 & 23, 2025

Support faith-based learning and empower the next generation of compassionate leaders.

With our entire Catholic Community, we provide our children an education with a purpose and strong moral values. We all must work together to enhance and continue the precious gift of publicly funded Catholic education in Alberta.

The Calgary Catholic Education Foundation supports the largest Catholic school district in the province with 120 schools and more than 64,000 students in the Calgary Catholic School District. Our mission is to enrich the educational experience of Catholic students in Calgary and surrounding areas. We do so with your generous donations received on Catholic Education Sunday.

In keeping with our faith, the Calgary Catholic Education Foundation was established to remove our schools’ reliance on casino fundraisers.

Since 2009, the CCEF has awarded over $3.8 million in grants. However, the need continues to grow to ensure our Catholic students are given equal opportunities to become tomorrow’s community leaders. Your continued support is needed now more than ever to help our students and schools thrive.

Your donation today goes toward funding granting opportunities available to any school in the Calgary Catholic School District. The Foundation’s funding priorities are:
    • Technology
    • Social Justice
    • Safe and Faith-Filled Schools
    • Leadership and Citizenship
    • Campus Calgary/Open Minds®
    • Playgrounds

We acknowledge that we gather on the traditional territories of the Blackfoot Confederacy, including the Siksika, Piikani (“Pee-gunee”), and Kainai (“Gay-nah”) Nations; we also acknowledge the territory of Treaty Seven, which is also home to the Tsuut’ina Nation and the Stoney Nakoda First Nations of Bearspaw, Chiniki, and Wesley, and the Métis Nation, and all the people who make their homes in the Treaty 7 region of Southern Alberta. We acknowledge all the many First Nations, Métis, and Inuit whose footsteps have marked these lands for centuries. We respect and affirm the inherent and treaty rights of Indigenous people, and we recognize the contributions of the Métis, Inuit, and all Indigenous peoples have and continue to make in shaping and strengthening our community and country.
