Adopt A Day
Help us sponsor 20 days for our 20th anniversary
What it is
As an Adopt a Day Sponsor you have the opportunity to make a difference in the lives of deserving young men and women while celebrating an important day in your life or that of a loved one.
Unlike most college prep high schools, Cristo Rey St. Martin operates on a year-round basis, with a regular academic year, summer school sessions, Corporate Work Study training and campus ministry events and volunteering. While a portion of the cost to educate is covered through the students’ work study earnings and family tuition payments, we do have an operating deficit which runs about $5,000 a day. As an Adopt a Day Sponsor you would be covering that cost.
