A GIFT TODAY TO THE SJ FUND CAN PLANT THE SEEDS FOR FUTURE SUCCESS.

SJ is a community of faith, family, and friendship. Freshman students feel it as soon they walk through the front doors: a welcome that is freely given. A pride that bonds the community. A belief that strengthens the spirit. A connection that lasts a lifetime. By the time they become seniors and walk across that graduation stage, our students know that when they joined the St. Joes family, they became known, and admired for precisely who they were and who they will work to become.

Additional Ways to Give

Employer Matching Gifts

Many companies recognize the value of educational excellence, and have agreed to multiply donations made to the school by their employees. With matching gifts you can sometimes double or even triple your gift!

To find out if your company has a matching gift policy, please reach out to your human resources department. If your company matches, let us know how we can assist in the process by emailing advancement@sjcadets.org.

Gifts of Stock and Bonds

A gift of appreciated securities, with publicly traded stock or from a private company, may provide greater tax advantages than gifts of cash. The donor can deduct the current fair-market value as a charitable gift, and completely avoid capital gains tax on the appreciation.

For more information about stock transfers, please contact Maria DeCarlo Stickney, Manager of Advancement Database Services.

Corporations and Foundations

The Office of Advancement is responsible for working with corporate and foundation donors to achieve the strategic goals of the High School.

Specific objectives include:

Link foundation and business objectives with the school's mission
Engage key alumni volunteers, parents, and friends in building new relationships between commerce and education
Research and identify opportunities for collaboration

If you believe that your company may present a partnership opportunity, or if you are interested in learning more about partnership opportunities, please contact Maria DeCarlo Stickney, Manager of Advancement Services at (203) 378-9378 x464, and you will be personally assisted.

Memorial Gifts

Many classes set special St Joseph Fund goals in honor of their reunion.

St Joseph High School receives many gifts in memory of classmates, parents and friends. When a memorial gift is received, we notify the honoree’s next of kin. Memorial funds that are capital or endowed funds cannot be credited to annual support.

For more information on Memorial fund options contact Maria DeCarlo Stickney, Manager of Advancement Services at (203) 378-9378 x464, and you will be personally assisted.
