Vandebilt Catholic High School

Mission Possible: Sending Our Students to Serve!

Each year, Vandebilt Catholic's Campus Ministry students step away from their classrooms and into experiences that ignite their faith, deepen their compassion, and strengthen their sense of purpose. Through retreats and mission trips, whether serving families in need or traveling across the country to share Christ’s love, our students return changed. They return with a renewed spirit and clearer vision of who God calls them to be.

These opportunities are at the very heart of our mission at Vandebilt Catholic. Yet, for many students, the cost can be a barrier. Airline flights, travel expenses, and retreat costs add up quickly. Campus Ministry has always stood firm that no student should ever have to miss these life-changing experiences because of financial hardship. When a student is in need, we quietly step in to supplement the costs through our own limited budget.

Our dream is to create a sustainable Campus Ministry Fund—a lasting source of support that ensures every student, regardless of circumstance, can encounter God in these transformative ways. This fund would help cover a portion of retreat and mission trip costs for all students, helping keep expenses stable and manageable for families as prices continue to rise.

Your generosity can help make that dream a reality. By giving to this fund, you’re not just supporting a trip, you’re investing in the faith, leadership, and hearts of our young people. You’re also empowering our faculty and staff chaperones to share in these experiences, strengthening their connection to our mission and multiplying the impact across our entire school community.

Together, we can make sure that every student who feels called to go…can go. Their journey of faith begins with your generosity.
