    • phil

As the School’s most important ongoing fundraising priority, The St. Mary’s  Fund generates $500,000 annually and represents more than six percent of the operating budget. Each year, alumni, parents, and friends show their support through the St. Mary’s Fund, providing critical resources for the School. This annual demonstration of tangible financial support ensures excellence across the campus.

Your gift means more than just dollars and cents. Your gift— of any amount —signifies your belief in the transformative power of a St. Mary’s education.

Your support ensures that we can hire and retain expert teachers, provide financial aid to nearly one fourth of our students, and support all aspects of a St. Mary’s education, from academics to the arts to athletics. 

The Annual Fund is St. Mary’s School major annual fundraising effort. It runs from July 1 through June 30 of each year and provides approximately 6% of the school’s $9.5 million operating budget. Annual Fund dollars are unrestricted and have a direct impact on every part of the St. Mary’s campus.
