For 7 years running, instead of collecting donations for their electric bill, the Trevisanos have given the proceeds from their donation box to St. Patrick Center to help build permanent, positive change for the agency’s clients. In 2011, the Trevisanos raised nearly $4,500!

Every Spring, Cor Jesu Academy and St. Joseph Academy students team up to help St. Patrick Center clients through their annual Funderwear Challenge.
