The FUND for HENDRICKEN is the foundation of Bishop Hendricken’s fundraising efforts. The FUND for HENDRICKEN dollars are generally unrestricted funds which directly support the school’s operating budget, but donors may also designate their gifts to specific needs within the FUND. Approximately 4% of Bishop Hendricken’s budget is provided for by gifts from alumni, parents, parents of alumni, grandparents, students, faculty, staff and friends.
The Varsity Football team enters Friday evening’s contest with a 1-1 overall record, and a 1-0 record in Rhode Island Interscholastic League play. Prior to last week’s 35-0 win over Cumberland, the Hawks opened their season against New York powerhouse Iona Preparatory. Keith Croft’s squad takes on a North Kingstown team that is perfect thus far in their first season back in Division I play.
