The Catholic Schools Sweepstakes program has helped Catholic schools raise $15 million for Catholic education over the past 17 years, with 100% of the proceeds going directly to the schools. Each year, we help participating Catholic schools raise much-needed funds through our Catholic Schools Sweepstakes program. We provide the prizes, promotional materials, and printed raffle tickets. The students then sell the tickets for $5 each.

Every ticket purchaser receives the chance to win the Grand Prize, which is a choice between a Roman Holiday Vacation for Four* OR a $20,000 Prepaid VISA Card. The second prize is a $2,500 Prepaid VISA Card. Each participating school is also guaranteed a $1,000 Prepaid VISA Credit Card winner**.

“As the school year begins many schools have immediate financial needs. All monies raised through this program go directly and immediately to the school,” said Catholic Life Insurance President Christopher M. Belz. “This is our way of helping Catholic schools and giving back to our faith-based community. We are proud of what we have been able to accomplish thus far for Catholic education.”
