The St. John’s Fund

The St. John’s Fund is the heart of charitable giving at St. John’s Parish Day School. Gifts to the Fund provide flexible, unrestricted support that allows SJPDS to respond to the school’s greatest needs and opportunities throughout the year.

Like all independent schools, tuition alone does not fully cover the cost of providing the exceptional educational experience our students receive every day. Support through the St. John’s Fund helps strengthen academic programs, support outstanding teachers, enhance classroom resources and technology, and ensure that SJPDS continues to thrive for generations to come.

Just as importantly, participation matters. Many competitive grant opportunities consider the percentage of families, faculty, staff, trustees, alumni, grandparents, and friends who support the school financially each year. A strong culture of giving demonstrates a united and invested community that believes deeply in the mission of SJPDS.

We are proud that year after year, 100% of our faculty, staff, and Board of Trustees contribute to the St. John’s Fund. Every gift, regardless of size, is a meaningful expression of support for our students and our future.

There are many ways to give. Supporters may make a one-time gift or choose recurring monthly giving through our SJPDS GEM (Giving Every Month) program, an easy and impactful way to provide ongoing support throughout the year.

Whether through a one-time donation, a monthly gift, or a pledge, every contribution to the St. John’s Fund makes a difference and is deeply appreciated.
