--- title: "Charity" url: "https://st-cecilias.co.uk/catholic-life-of-the-school/cafod-club" school: "St Cecilia's RC High School" --- # Charity ![](https://st-cecilias.co.uk/images/Adobe_Express_-_file_(3).jpg) Charity lies at the heart of our school's ethos, embodying teachings from parables like the Good Samaritan and the Parable of the Sheep and Goats. At the beginning of each school year, every year group is entrusted with a specific charity, fostering a sense of responsibility and empathy among our students. Our dedicated charity coordinators play a pivotal role by attending meetings and sharing updates with their forms, encouraging collaborative brainstorming sessions for fundraising ideas. With the guidance of their form tutors, students enthusiastically participate in initiatives such as pyjama days, guess-the-teacher contests, football shirt days, sponsored walks, and more. These activities not only raise crucial funds but also nurture a spirit of compassion and solidarity within our school community, demonstrating our commitment to making a positive impact in the wider world through acts of kindness and generosity. Our Year Group Charities are as follows: Year 7- CAFOD Year 8- CARITAS Year 9- Macmillan Cancer Support Year 10- Derian House Year 11- Pendleside Hospice ### Related News 26 June 2026 ### [Colour Run 2026](https://st-cecilias.co.uk/news/2026-06-26-colour-run-2026) 17 June 2026 ### [CAFOD Club 2026](https://st-cecilias.co.uk/news/2026-06-17-cafod-club-2026) 13 February 2026 ### [Mental Health Week 2026](https://st-cecilias.co.uk/news/2026-02-13-mental-health-week-2026) [View All News](https://st-cecilias.co.uk/news/tag/charity%252Ccafod%252Ccaritas) ### Catholic Life - [CARITAS Ambassadors](https://st-cecilias.co.uk/catholic-life-of-the-school/caritas-ambassadors) - [Catholic Life at St Cecilia's](https://st-cecilias.co.uk/catholic-life-of-the-school/catholic-life-at-st-cecilia-s) - [Jubilee 2025: The Year Of Hope](https://st-cecilias.co.uk/catholic-life-of-the-school/jubilee-2025-the-year-of-hope) - [Catholic Social Teaching](https://st-cecilias.co.uk/catholic-life-of-the-school/catholic-social-teaching) - [Chaplaincy in our School](https://st-cecilias.co.uk/catholic-life-of-the-school/chaplaincy-in-our-school) - [Charity](https://st-cecilias.co.uk/catholic-life-of-the-school/cafod-club) - [Community](https://st-cecilias.co.uk/catholic-life-of-the-school/community) - [Diocesan and Parish Links](https://st-cecilias.co.uk/catholic-life-of-the-school/diocesan-and-parish-links) - [Our School Saints](https://st-cecilias.co.uk/catholic-life-of-the-school/our-patron-saint) - [Pilgrimage](https://st-cecilias.co.uk/catholic-life-of-the-school/pilgrimage) - [Retreat Programme](https://st-cecilias.co.uk/catholic-life-of-the-school/retreat-programme) - [Catholic Life Enrichment](https://st-cecilias.co.uk/catholic-life-of-the-school/catholic-life-enrichment) **St Cecilia's RC High School** Chapel Hill Longridge Preston Lancashire PR3 2XA Tel: 01772 783074 Email: ### Social Media - [Facebook](https://www.facebook.com/StCeciliasHigh/) © Copyright 2017–2026 St Cecilia's RC High School School & Trust Websites by [ ![Schudio logo](https://st-cecilias.co.uk/img/logo/dark.png) ](https://www.schudio.com/)
