The Community Partners Program was established in 2008 as a way to build sustainable, mutually beneficial partnerships between Our Lady of Good Counsel High School and alumni, parents, and locally affiliated businesses. Revenue from partners directly supports Good Counsel’s areas of greatest need, enabling us to strengthen critical priorities and respond confidently to new challenges and opportunities.

The Community Partners Program offers four levels of sponsorship – each with a wide range of engagement, marketing, and networking benefits that are customized to support your individual business, personal, or philanthropic goals.
 
There are a number of ways your organization can get started partnering with Our Lady of Good Counsel High School including gift-in-kind donations, volunteer engagement, career mentorships, etc.
