The Annual Fund
The Annual Fund: Investing in What Matters Most
At St. Sebastian's the Annual Fund is our top giving priority, supporting the immediate needs of our School's greatest assets—our students and our exceptional faculty. Your gift to the Annual Fund makes a meaningful difference in the life of every Arrow. Thanks to the generosity of our alumni, parents, past parents, grandparents, and friends, we are able to fulfill our mission of calling these young men to greatness in body, mind, and spirit.
Why Your Gift Matters
Tuition covers approximately 70 percent of the cost of educating a student; the remaining 30 percent comes from gifts to the Annual Fund and income from the Endowment.
The Annual Fund provides the School with the resources and financial flexibility needed to innovate, advance and respond to challenges. Every gift is critical to the ongoing success of St. Sebastian’s.
