2026 Marathon Day of Service -  Friday, October 9th

What is the 'Marathon Day of Service'? 

An annual tradition at Carondelet, our "Marathon Day of Service" is one of three major fundraisers that contribute towards the school's operating budget. The money raised helps us keep tuition affordable, maintain small class sizes, and offer the highest level of academic excellence in a faith-based, nurturing environment.

Pledges – in exchange for pledge donations, students gather for a school-organized Day of Service on Friday, October 9.  

And don’t forget to ask your employer to see if they offer an educational corporate match!
