1 The AES Crestwood FoundationAnnual Report 2017-2018

Thank You for Your Generosity! Dear AES Crestwood Foundation Supporter,

2018 was a year of celebration and gratitude marking the 75th anniversary of Annunciation School and the 1st anniversary of The AES Crestwood Foundation.

The overwhelming support of Annunciation School and The AES Crestwood Foundation was evident at the 75th Anniversary Gala, where nearly 300 supporters came together to celebrate Catholic education in Crestwood, New York.

Thanks to your generosity, we surpassed our 2018 fundraising goal by over $100,000, and our donor list continues to grow. The AES Crestwood Foundation’s mission is to provide financial support to Annunciation School so that we may continue the promise of an excellent Catholic education for generations to come.

On behalf of the entire Board, thank you for your generosity, and may God continue to bless you and Annunciation School.

Sincerely,

Laura Finneran Mary Theresa Gill McCombe ‘75 President Vice President

In Memoriam Annunciation School and The AES

Crestwood Foundation would like to recognize the names of donors to the Annual Fund who have passed away.

John Manning ‘48 Mary Campbell Caldwell ‘61

Lisa Pellarin LeClair ‘79

Their support of the Annual Fund will always be appreciated and

remembered.

With the creation of The AES Crestwood Foundation in 2017, the Annual Fund was moved from the school to the Foundation. The success of the Annual Fund over the last several years was a testament to the appreciation and respect that our alumni, school families and friends have for the wonderful education that Annunciation School has, and continues, to provide. This year, as we celebrated the 75th Anniversary of the school, we started off the Annual Fund with a matching gift challenge that was increased to $40,000 due to the generosity of three anonymous donors. With your help, we met this challenge and doubled the total in the Annual Fund on December 31, 2018, raising over 60% of our goal in two months! Thank you!
