St. Joseph Fund Q&A
- Why Give?
  We ask you to prayerfully consider making a donation to enhance the school’s budget beyond your tuition dollars and help the school grow. Your gift will send a powerful message about the difference that SJCS has made for you and your family. It can also be a strong statement about your belief in the importance of Catholic education. We know there are many worthy causes asking for your participation. We are grateful for your commitment to SJCS through a pledge or gift.
- Why is this fund necessary?
  We need infrastructure upgrades to facilities and technology and we want to improve our faith formation. Through the annual fund, these things can become a reality. Our goal is to create as many seats at the table as possible.
- What does my donation go toward?
  St. Joseph Fund contributions will make a tremendous and immediate impact on our educational programs and will be distributed between the areas listed below. If you would like your gift to be assigned to a specific area, please let us know.

  Your tax-deductible gift to the CTTT Fund will support and enhance the joyful learning environment students experience each day. Every donation is essential and greatly appreciated.
- Does fundraising affect our tuition?
  Most certainly! We want to continue to be able to freeze our tuition, rather than raising it each year. Donations to bridge the gap between tuition and operating costs will help us to do just that!
  
  If you are interested in directly supporting a student in need of financial assistance, please check out our Crusader Club. These donations are specifically allocated to offset our school financial assistance fund.
- How can I help?
  The St. Joseph Fund is the best way possible for current parents, alumni, the family of alumni, grandparents, parishioners, friends and organizations to help make a financial difference in the future of St. Joseph Catholic School.
Your Impact in Action

Thanks to your generosity, we've been able to make impactful improvements across our school.
- Secondary Campus Entrance
  We have transformed the front entrance of our Secondary Campus! The newly remodeled entrance is now more welcoming and visible, providing a warm first impression for our families and guests. This improvement not only enhances security but also reflects our commitment to creating a positive and inviting environment at St. Joseph Catholic School. Your support makes these meaningful changes possible!
- New Screens in Chapel
  Thanks to the funds raised for the annual fund at our Spring Gala, we were able to purchase two new screens for our chapel. These additions have greatly enhanced our school liturgies, prayer services, and other spiritual gatherings, creating a more engaging and meaningful worship experience for our students and community. Your generosity continues to enrich our faith-filled environment!
- Chromebooks
  We were able to purchase new Chromebooks for both our Elementary and Secondary Campuses. These devices are enhancing our students’ learning experience, making technology more accessible and allowing us to integrate more interactive and innovative teaching methods across all grade levels. Your generosity is driving educational excellence at SJCS!
