1872 Annual Fund

The 1872 Fund is the annual giving program and the lifeblood of St. Joseph’s Catholic School. Began in 2008, the goal of the 1872 Fund is to strengthen our Endowment while also allowing the school to cover unexpected expenditures. The school relies on annual giving to keep the cost of tuition as affordable as possible and to bridge the gap between tuition revenues and the actual cost of an education at St. Joseph’s. Your contribution to the 1872 Fund, no matter how large or small, is at the heart of preparing our students for success.

We ask you to partner with us in continuing the tradition of educating, nurturing, and encouraging our students to be lifelong learners by supporting the 1872 Fund.
