Honor Roll of Donors
The Fund For Excellence Annual Appeal helps make an extraordinary Vincentian Catholic education at DePaul College Prep accessible by closing the gap between tuition and the true cost of educating our students. Proceeds from the annual appeal support financial aid and operational needs including salaries for our outstanding faculty and staff. Gifts to the Annual Appeal ensure that DePaul Prep remains a racially, religiously, socially, and economically diverse high school serving the families of Chicago.
A complete list of annual donors across all DePaul Prep ways of giving including special events, sponsorships, and other areas is available in our most recent annual report.
