St. Mary's deeply appreciates and depends on private donations to provide the margin of excellence that distinguishes its programs from those of other schools. Tuition alone does not support the annual cost of education.  The St. Mary’s Fund, our annual giving program, and the Annual Auction provide the balance of the operating budget.

Understanding the urgency and necessity of their support, alumnae, parents, grandparents and friends of the school choose to answer the call with generous gifts. You might have any of the following reasons for making a gift to St. Mary's School:

• You want to make a real difference in the education of St. Mary's students.
• You want to support the exceptional work of our faculty.
• You have a strong belief in the value of independent education.
• You are grateful for what St. Mary's did for you as a student or is doing for your children, and you want to give back in some way.
• You want to join your peers and participate in the school.
• You have an interest in supporting a particular aspect of education, and you want to see it flourish.
• You want to recognize a loved one, so you make a gift in his or her honor.
• You want you and your family to be recognized.
• You want to encourage others to give with your participation.

Whatever your reason, YOU can make a difference at St. Mary's School.

Thank you!
