Since 1884, St. John the Baptist Catholic School has given families in the community a safe and nurturing place for their children to learn and grow — in mind, spirit and soul. By our focus on educating the whole student, we instill strong values and characteristics in students that stay with them throughout their entire life.According to a recent parent satisfaction survey the school conducted, our St. John the Baptist families STRONGLY AGREE that Catholic school is a good investment in their child’s future.
This is great news! However, the cost of education continues to rise, which can make it difficult for many families to afford Catholic school. That’s why two years ago we started the St. John the Baptist Tuition Assistance Fund. Because of the generous support from donors, this year alone, the St. John the Baptist Tuition Assistance Fund provided financial assistance to 10 students.
During this time of year, many people consider end-of-the year gifts. We ask you to consider making a one-time gift of $50, $100, or any amount you choose, to the St. John the Baptist Tuition Assistance Fund. When you support the St. John the Baptist Tuition Assistance Fund with a one time financial gift, your contribution makes a difference every single day. Your dollars go to work immediately to help strengthen and support St. John’s school mission.
There are many ways you can give.To make a one-time, tax deductible donation, or recurring gift, from your credit card or bank account. Visit www.catholicgift.org. Then click on the “Donate” button and follow the prompts. Or, you can make a donation by check. Simply download a form from the “Forms” page at www.stjbcatholic.com. If you prefer, you can pick-up a donation form located at the school office or in the church commons.
We are grateful for your continued commitment to our school and for helping ensure we can provide an affordable Catholic education to families in our community.
Matching Gifts:
If you work for a company that matches employee contributions, you can double the impact of your end of the year gift! Most companies will match your contribution dollar for dollar and some even match the donation of spouses and retirees! Check with your company’s Human Resources office to find out if the company you work for has a matching gift program.
