Alumni

Bishop Canevin hosts several fundraising events throughout the year, including The Annual Crusader Classic Golf Outing, Night at the Races, Giving Day, Evening of Excellence, All Alumni Cookout, and the Canevin Classic Car Cruise. These events are open to the entire BC Community and offer great opportunities for alumni to reconnect with the school and its current families and facultystaff members.

We appreciate any support you can provide, whether it’s purchasing a ticket, bidding in a silent online auction, sponsoring, or simply spreading the word among Crusader friends. Your support helps us continue to offer these wonderful events and strengthen our community. 

The Bishop Canevin Fund is the school’s most important and ongoing fundraising effort and plays an essential role in offering the young men and women of Bishop Canevin the best possible education in the best possible facilities. While tuition revenue covers a major portion of the school’s operations, it does no cover 100%. The Bishop Canevin Fund helps bridge the gap between tuition revenue and the increasing cost of operating the school.

In addition, an annual donation to the Bishop Canevin Fund provides critical support to the school’s financial aid program. The generosity of alumni, parents, and friends makes it possible for eligible students to have the benefit of a Bishop Canevin education regardless of financial circumstances.

Support of the Bishop Canevin Fund ensures that Bishop Canevin’s education continues its legacy of an exceptional learning experience that encourages each student to enrich their faith, explore opportunities, and exceed expectations.

Redirect Your State Taxes to Support BC!

Qualified contributors to the Pennsylvania Educational Improvement Tax Credit (EITC) program earn a 90% state tax credit while directing their contribution to Bishop Canevin High School for scholarships.

Originally limited to businesses, the program expanded in 2014 to allow qualified individuals to also take part in the program.  Every year, scores of business and individuals enjoy EITC tax benefits while helping students who would not otherwise be able to afford a Catholic education.

Email Advancement Director, Joe Milharcic, milharcicj@bishopcanevin.org if interested in participating in the program!

We want to congratulate Lt. Darryl Smith, a 24-year veteran of the office, on his graduation from the FBI National Academy, in Quantico, Virginia, one of the premier law enforcement training programs in the world.

Since its founding, nearly 50,000 individuals have graduated from the 10-week course and we are extremely proud that Lt. Smith’s name is now included in that list. 

He will join Sheriff Kraus, Commander Richard Manning, Commander Leo O’Neill and Lt. Conor Mullen. Please join all of us in wishing Lt. Darryl Smith all the best!
