Every year, 16+ inner-city Hartford youths receive a scholarship from St. Ann’s church to attend private Catholic High School. Catholic schooling benefits these students in a variety of ways, including smaller class size; more rigorous instruction; and a nurturing, spiritual atmosphere.

The main funding for the scholarship is the annual parish-wide Tag Sale, held in October. Private donations and memorials, as well as corporate awards and matching grants, add to the fund.

A team of committed volunteers, led by Becky Blankenbicker, runs this huge event every year. For more information, or to volunteer your time or goods, please call Becky at 673-0291.
