BE AN ANGEL
DONATE TO THE ST. JAMES ACADEMY ANNUAL FUND
Dear Friends, Families and Supporters of St. James Academy,
First and foremost, thank you to those who donated to our First Annual Fund, the Guardian Angel Program of 2017-2018. We raised over $50,000! These monies bridged the shortfall between our affordable tuition and the actual cost of educating each student. Last year, the annual fund closed the gap for 28 students! This funding ensures that St. James Academy will continue to provide innovative programs, a rigorous academic curriculum, an updated facility and most importantly, a solid Catholic education for our students.
Together, let’s continue the positive momentum and surpass the money raised last year! The newly named, St. James Annual Fund is vital in ensuring that SJA continues to set the standard in Catholic School education. Our goal this year is to receive $90,000; this will close the tuition shortfall ($1,800/per student) for 50 students! We are asking that every family, parishioner, alumni and supporter prayerfully consider joining us in making a tax-deductible donation- no pledge amount is too little or too great. In honor of St. James Academy opening in 1952, we have created the "St. James Society" donation option. Those who donate at this level will be invited to attend a special Pastor and Principal dinner at a later date in the school year.
We are profoundly grateful for the support of the members of the parish, the extended SJA community, alumni and our current families. Let’s join together for our current and future students to ensure they receive the best Catholic education possible.
Be an angel and contribute to the St. James Academy Annual Fund. Please see the back for payment options.
