A $5,000 donation from Colin and Misty Ohnheiser was recently deposited into the Matching Funds Campaign account at Fayette Savings Bank (FSB) for the benefit of the St. Rose Catholic School Renovation Campaign.

“All donations in any amount are welcomed and greatly appreciated,” Gallia said. “Counting donations in the bank account and pledges made to the campaign, we are at $2.3 million of the $3.0 million goal for Phase 1 of the renovation project with work targeted to start at the end of this school year – in about a month.”

“We will continue to work on raising the additional $2.0 million needed for Phase 2 & Phase 3 of the project, which would start at the end of the following school year, the Summer of 2026,” Gallia added.

Donations can be made primarily at the Fayette Savings Bank – Schulenburg location at 87 N. Kessler Ave. (Hwy. 77 N. next to Dairy Queen). However, any FSB banking center (La Grange, Flatonia, Weimar) can accept and post donations to the account if one of these locations is more convenient for the donor.

Donations over $5,000 can be dedicated to the “matching side” of the campaign where they are used to match regular donations from the public, enabling them to be doubled.

Founded in 1889, St. Rose School has served students of Schulenburg and surrounding communities and has thrived for 135 years, providing authentic, relevant education and faith formation to grades PreK3 through 8th grade with a mission of shaping wellrounded students who positively impact the community.
