Ways to Give

Like all independent schools, we rely on the generosity of our parents, alumni, grandparents, and friends to ensure that our students enjoy all of the benefits of our amazing school.  We do this by helping to close the approximate $2,400 difference (The Gap) between what tuition provides and the actual cost of a Saint Paul’s education. The BLUE WHITE FUND is our most important fundraiser and goes a long way to fill The Gap.  It helps to sustain and enhance the programs that our families have come to expect.  It is our most collaborative fundraising endeavor, enhancing the breadth and depth of our strong academic and abundant enrichment programs that allow each student to flourish. 

We hope that every Saint Paul's family lists the Blue White Fund as their first giving priority. The goal is part of our operating budget and fills the gap between tuition revenue and the actual cost to educate a student at Saint Paul's. This gap is $2,400 per student this year. Donations range from contributing to a portion of the gap to fulfilling the gap for multiple students. We encourage participation at a level that is meaningful to each family. Every gift is important and appreciated!

We must continue to offer the breadth and quality of programs that we promise and Saint Paul's families expect; most notably a culture of innovation, a community that ensures every child is known and nurtured, and the ability to attract and retain the most qualified teachers. Fulfilling these educational needs, however, is a significant investment not achieved with tuition revenue. In order to cover the full cost of our programs, we need to fill the gap through gifts to the Blue White Fund. 

Our participation goal is always 100% school-wide. The generosity of our community will benefit each student's experience and quality of education.
