Endowment

A healthy endowment is the key to the future strength and success of St. Francis School’s mission to provide an exceptional Catholic education. Your gift to the endowment ensures that generations of students to come can experience what it means to be a part of the St. Francis School community. 

Donating to the endowment is easy. We can accept gifts of cash or securities, outright or deferred through a planned gift. Endowed gifts of $1,000 or greater secure your membership in the St. Francis School Legacy Society. 

How does an endowed gift differ from annual giving? 

Endowed gifts are invested. A portion of the annual income from the investment is used each year to support school programs. The principal funds are not spent and ensure indefinite support for St. Francis School. Annual Fund gifts, by contrast, are spent in the same year given and are used entirely to support the operating budget of St. Francis School.
