The Annual Fund
campaign was established in 2010. The sole purpose of the
campaign is to provide need-based tuition assistance to parish
families attending St Vincent de Paul School, now and in the
future. We believe that every parish family that desires a first
class Catholic education for their children should be provided
the opportunity to attend our Parish school, regardless of
financial need.

What is the Annual
Fund?
The Annual Fund is a yearly fundraising campaign designed to meet
the current and future tuition assistance needs of our parish
families. Up to 50% of all contributions to the Annual Fund will
be directed to the Principal’s Tuition Assistance Fund in order to
meet current tuition assistance needs. The balance (at least 50%)
will be directed to the permanent Endowment Fund to meet future
tuition assistance needs.
What about the
Endowment?
Although the Endowment will someday provide a stream of tuition
assistance revenue, the value of the endowment has not reached the
self imposed goal of $1,000,000 in endowed funds required before the
income from the investment will be drawn upon. This means there is
currently no tuition assistance provided by the Endowment. The
Annual Fund will bridge this gap by continuing to build the
Endowment while simultaneously addressing current tuition assistance
needs.
Who contributes to
the Annual Fund?
We
all do. The philanthropic support of St Vincent’s current and past
parents, alumni, grandparents, faculty, staff, friends, and the
overall St Vincent de Paul Parish community is essential for the
school to continue its mission of educating the whole child through
a loving, supportive environment, high academic standards, and
traditional Catholic values.
