Northwest Catholic High School has raised more than $1300 for Saint Francis Comprehensive Women’s Health Center.

Students and faculty donated $2 to dress casually on Oct. 31, 2014, with all the donations going directly to the Women’s Health Center. Northwest Catholic’s Senior Class officers, school nurse Marilyn Adamo and NWC staff member Debra LeBel, a client of the center, presented a check for $1320 to Amy Griffin Buzzell ’97, Director of Special Events, Grants and Operations for the Saint Francis Foundation, on Nov. 12, 2014.

“We are pleased to contribute these funds to the Women’s Health Center at St. Francis,” says Northwest Catholic President, Dave Eustis. “St. Francis has done so many wonderful things over the years for families of Northwest Catholic. It is our privilege to give a little back to them and say thank you.”

Since 1961, Northwest Catholic’s mission has been to educate the whole person: mind, body, spirit, and soul. Enrollment for the Class of ’19 is now under way, and prospective students are invited to take the Entrance Exam at Northwest Catholic on December 6, 2014.
