Welcome to the Development Department at Mother McAuley Liberal Arts High School!

Our role is to advance and promote Mother McAuley through public relations, marketing, alumnae and parent relations, and fundraising.  We want to get the message out that a McAuley education is exceptional, mission-filled, and worthy of your support.  I encourage you to visit the other pages on our website to see just how special our McAuley women are.

If you haven’t been to campus in a while, I invite you back for a visit soon.  We are in the process of renovating our Dining Hall, Student Lounge, and Bookstore to create an inviting and welcoming atmosphere that is truly reflective of the spirit of hospitality that is such an important part of the Mercy tradition.  As a part of this process there are a number of naming and dedication possibilities for alumnae, parents, and friends of McAuley.  Please stop by anytime for coffee, lunch, and a tour!

Another wonderful reason to visit is McAuley's many performances, athletic events, special events, and art shows. Please cheer on our basketball team as they take on Queen of Peace on January 8th at 5:00 p.m. at McAuley. Our alumnae, parents, and friends are all invited to Party With The Plaid on Saturday, February 21st. We are excited to announce that this year Party With the Plaid is going "Motown" with the Gentlemen of Leisure Band! Later this spring we invite you to explore the creative work of our gifted McAuley student artists during our annual Art Show, Friday, May 8th at 7:00 p.m. in the Art Wing

For those of you who are already regular donors to Mother McAuley, I thank you.  Because of your support we are able to provide the diversity of programs that make a McAuley education unique.  We couldn't do it without you!

If you are not yet a donor, please consider joining the many alumnae, parents, and friends who are keeping the McAuley mission strong.  In the words of Catherine McAuley herself, “No work of charity can be more productive of good to society than the careful instruction of women.”  You can make a gift online right away.

Please feel free to contact me with any questions, ideas or concerns, at (773) 881-6557 or kheise@mothermcauley.org.  I hope to see you at McAuley soon!

Sincerely,

Kathy Heise
Vice President for Development
