Nativity School of Worcester announced on Wednesday it received a $1.8-million gift, the largest donation to the school in its 18-year history, according to a press release.
The historic gift came from the late Catherine Butler, who was dean of the Brandeis University’s graduate school, according to her obituary. Butler had a graduate degree in psychology and counseling from Clark University in Worcester, and counseled at Worcester State Hospital for many years, per the obituary.
The funding will go toward expanding the institution's endowment and mission, which is to provide tuition-free, Jesuit education to middle school boys from underserved communities.
Nativity School is funded solely through individual donations such as Butler’s, per the release.
