Cristo Rey Jesuit High School Twin Cities

Give to the Max 2024 Fundraising Page |  GIVE NOW

Our mission is to ensure that all of our under-resourced students have the opportunity to graduate from college through a college-preparatory education and enriching extracurricular activities, including athletics.

Cristo Rey Jesuit High School has been providing a high-quality, college-preparatory academic program for under-resourced families in the Twin Cities since its opening in fall 2007. A vital aspect of our program is the work-study initiative, CWSP, where each student covers approximately 50% of their educational costs by working in entry-level positions at leading local companies. This unique model allows students to access a rigorous education while developing a strong work ethic and gaining valuable professional experience.

As we celebrate Give to the Max Day this year, we are excited to focus on raising funds specifically for our athletics and extracurricular activities. These programs are essential for fostering teamwork, leadership skills, and personal growth among our students.

In June 2011, we proudly celebrated our first graduation, with 61 students receiving their diplomas, and 100% of that class accepted into college or the military. This achievement has continued, with every graduating class from 2011 to 2024 achieving a 100% college acceptance rate. Our graduates have gone on to prestigious institutions such as Georgetown University, Carleton College, Marquette University, and the University of Minnesota.

To sustain our mission and enhance our athletics and activities, we rely on the generosity of our community. Your support can make a significant difference in the lives of our students, helping them thrive both in the classroom and on the field.

Please consider making a donation to help elevate the athletic programs at Cristo Rey and empower our students to achieve their dreams.
