There are many ways friends may support Saint Anthony School in its efforts to offer this unique education to its students:

 

The Annual Fund raises unrestricted funds for operating expenses. The income generated from Annual Giving is used where needed most each year. The number of donors and amount raised has grown consistently each year, with many current parents, past parents, alumni/i.e., grandparents, friends and others taking part.

 

The Ward Trust, Scholarship & Enrichment Fund is a restricted account which is used to provide scholarships to needy students who would not otherwise be able to afford tuition and for the School Enrichment Programs. The Ward Trust is administered by Mr. Mark Ferraro of Lewis, Lewis & Ferraro, LLC. It is our hope that generous donors will support the fund through the years.

 

The Technology Fund provides assistance to our school’s technology efforts, including the Writing-to-Read-Lab and the school PC Lab. The fund was established with generous donations from Frank Ferraro and Sons, in honor of Mildred C. Ferraro, wife/mother.  The fund is currently replenished by donations from the Ferraro Family and the Annual Technology Raffle. Donations are welcomed.

 

The Capital/Building Fund is a restricted account to be used for major school capital/building expenditures. Donations are welcomed.

 
Many businesses offer Matching Gifts funds, which can double or triple a donor's gift. Check with your employer.

 

Designated gifts to a particular program are always welcomed. Individuals that wish to make a gift directly to the library, sports, music and arts programs, or any other school programs, may do so by completing the Gifts and Donations Form.

 

Memorial and honorary gifts are a thoughtful way to remember someone special while helping our School. Individuals that wish to make a memorial or honorary gift, may do so by completing the Gifts and Donations Form.

 

Gifts-In-Kind are also welcomed!  Thanks to several parishioners and friends, projects like our PC Lab and Library were made possible by individuals that provided their gifts of Time, Talent and Materials.   These Gifts-In-Kind may be Tax Deductible; please check with our Development Office for details.

 

Most gifts are by cash (check), but gifts of stocks and securities may also be accepted by the school and may also be matched by some employers.

 

Planned giving offers many ways to remember Saint Anthony Catholic School through bequests and wills, life insurance, annuities, charitable remainder trusts and other areas. Contact the school's Development Office, which can help coordinate your wishes.
