In concert with Bishop Johnston’s vision of 'One Family: Restored in Christ – Equipped for Mission,' our board of directors is excited to announce our $7.1 Million Campaign.
Ensuring our faith-based legacy will require a major investment in infrastructure, curriculum, and financial assistance in both capital, curriculum, and technology across its two major flagship campuses at Our Lady of Hope and Holy Cross - as well as continued assistance to our partner schools.
We believe that this is a clearly sited plan to ensure the long-term sustainability and growth of this gospel-driven act of faith for the next 30 years. Nearly all Bright Future’s current 400 families are new arrivals to America. Like our own immigrant family’s generations ago, they too turn to the Church for education and Christian formation of their children. In the spirit of your own ancestors please consider helping us continue this wonderful Gospel legacy by generously contributing to the Shine Brightly Campaign.

J.E. and L.E. Mabee Foundation
Challenges Bright Futures Fund
In one of the largest single foundation gifts to Bright Futures in its thirty-one-year history the J.E. and L.E. Mabee Foundation of Midland, Texas has issued a $650,000 challenge grant for the construction of the Shine Brightly Neighborhood Center. Meaning, we need to raise the funds for the Neighborhood Center within the next year, for their challenge to be complete. Reaching this goal could see us breaking ground as early as next year on our current project. Help us raised these needed funds at the link below.
