Donating to St. Anthony's Scholarship Fund

Every year, donations from parents and friends of St. Anthony's Catholic School help students take advantage of all that St. Anthony's has to offer.

Contributions from alumni, parents of alumni, grandparents, parents, staff, and friends of St. Anthony's help defray the costs of a Catholic education that tuition revenue alone does not cover. Our goal for the 2018-2019 Scholarship Fund is $60,000.  These funds directly support Catholic students with tuition assistance here at St. Anthony's School.

Please join us and help us reach 100% participation from the entire school community!  Every gift counts.

Your Lasting Legacy

Consider naming St. Anthony's Catholic School in your estate plans.  You might be worried that by including a gift to a charitable organization there will be less assets left for children, family and friends. While some estate gifts are passed on with a heavy tax percentage, others can be passed down income tax–free. When you name St. Anthony's Catholic School as the beneficiary of 1% of your retirement plan assets and leave other less-taxed assets to your children, you can positively impact St. Anthony's and leave more for loved ones.  

Did you know?

  • ​The Catholic Church educates 2.6 million K-12 students every day, at a cost of $10,000,000,000 a year, a savings of $18,000,000,000 a year to the American taxpayer.
  • The average cost to educate a student in a public school is well over $10,000 per student per year, and just over $6,500 per year in a private school. 
  • Catholic education is a MINISTRY of the church. “Catholic schools afford the fullest and best opportunity to realize the fourfold purpose of Christian education, namely to provide an atmosphere in which the Gospel message is proclaimed, community in Christ is experienced, service to our sisters and brothers is the norm, and thanksgiving and worship of our God is cultivated.” – Renewing our Commitment to Catholic Elementary and Secondary Schools in the Third Millennium, USCCB
