Building a Perpetual Legacy
St. Francis Xavier School intends to build a lasting legacy through our endowment, The St. Ignatius Fund, for scholarships, our beloved Angel Fund, and for general school needs.
The primary goal of creating an endowment is to ensure a perpetual legacy for St. Francis Xavier. We hope to have a sustainable source of funding which will help us remain operational and continue to provide a high quality education to students for generations to come.
With gratitude, we are thrilled to share that we have two match opportunities ~ An anonymous donor has pledged a dollar for dollar match up to $100,000, and the Catholic Community Foundation is offering us a 25% match on donations up to a million dollars.
Please visit the Catholic Community Foundation’s website to learn more about our St. Ignatius Fund and how to participate.
In addition to the St. Ignatius Fund, we will still have our three Fundraising Events. Fun Fest will be in the Fall and the proceeds will go towards projects of the Parents' Association. The annual Auction will be in the Spring and funds raised will go towards a capital improvement project. The annual Golf Tournament will also be in the Spring and the proceeds will go towards the St. Ignatius Fund.
The Fr. Dan Sullivan Scholarship Fund
Fr. Dan Sullivan has been a beloved priest and pastor at the St. Francis community for many years. He recently celebrated 51 years as a priest, and he has been a Jesuit for 63 years! We are so grateful for his service, his humility, the way he has shepherded our community, and his delightful personality. Everyone who meets him is better for having done so. This endowment, in his honor, will continue his deep love and appreciation for Jesuit education at St. Francis Xavier School.
Annually, The Fr. Dan Sullivan Scholarship will be distributed to needy and deserving students at St. Francis Xavier School who meet the criteria established by the school.
