Academic Signing Day
Cristo Rey Boston's Academic Signing Day is an annual celebration of the graduating class and our largest fundraiser. Join us on Thursday, May 16, 2024, as we celebrate student success, acknowledge CRB's 20-year history, celebrate the accomplishments of our alumni, and recognize the visionary leaders who were instrumental in our success
Academic Signing Day showcases Cristo Rey Boston’s students' tremendous grit, resilience, and subsequent college and career success. Many Cristo Rey Boston students will be the first in their families to attend college, and their journey highlights their hopes, aspirations, and sacrifices for themselves and their families.
Your generous sponsorship of this event will provide full-tuition scholarships to all accepted students who attend Cristo Rey Boston and signals your commitment to removing barriers to college and career success for students from underrepresented backgrounds.
Cristo Rey Boston High School is the only private, tuition-free college prep high school in Boston. The school is rooted in the Jesuit tradition and committed to serving culturally diverse, aspirational students with demonstrated economic need. Offering a rigorous college-preparatory curriculum and a valuable four-year work experience to students, we rely on donor and partner contributions to support our mission.
Your Sponsorship
Academic Signing Day is an opportunity to showcase your commitment to supporting aspirational students from under-resourced communities to achieve their goals.
With over 200 people in attendance the night of the event and a newsletter that reaches 3400 people sent bi-weekly as part of the advance communications, your sponsorship will have broad reach.
