The Scholarship Fund was established to encourage students to be regular in attendance at Faith Formation. That is the main criteria. See a Guild member for additional criteria that must be met. The Guild has awarded over 100 scholarships in support of our deserving youth.
MEMORIAL DONATIONS: Most of the funding for the scholarships has come from Memorial Donations upon the death of parishioners. If you would like to make a memorial gift to our scholarship fund, please make your check payable to the St. Theresa Scholarship Fund and mail to:

TURKEY BINGO: St. Theresa's Annual Turkey Bingo is hosted by the Ladies Guild with assistance from the entire parish. This event has taken place on the Monday before Thanksgiving for at least 60 years. Many people from the area attend and it is an enjoyable social occasion for the Parish. Proceeds from the Bingo go to the Ladies Guild Scholarship Fund.
RAFFLES: Raffles for quilts made by the Guild as well as other items are held at various times during the year. Parish members are key supporters of the raffles and encourage other family members and friends to also support our scholarship fundraisers.
