You Can Help
La Salle is dependent on the generosity of the
public for its operation.
Until 1993, the Grey Nuns underwrote all of
La Salle's operating budget. Since then, the Board of Directors has
been responsible for developing a fundraising initiative that increasingly
supports the program.
To meet the increasing financial need, La Salle
engages in corporate fundraising, solicitation of grants, private
donations and bequests, special events and telefundraising.
Resident rents account for only 10% of the costs
of running La Salle. Just to avoid deficits, the other 90%, or approximately
$400,000 a year, must come to La Salle as a result of the generosity
of caring donors.
As costs continue to rise, and as our (older)
building needs upgrading, it is ever more critical that generous
and understanding corporate and private donors help us continue to
provide support.
