• What is St. Agnes Giving Day?

  St. Agnes Giving Day is St. Agnes Academy’s annual giving day. This fundraising event encourages everyone in the St. Agnes community to come together and give back to a school that has given so much to them. For 24 hours, students, alumnae, parents, grandparents, faculty, staff, and friends unite to show their support.

• When is St. Agnes Giving Day?

  St. Agnes Giving Day will run from 9 am on Thursday, April 25, 2024, through 9 am Friday, April 26, 2024.

• Why should I participate in St. Agnes Giving Day?

  Educating one student costs more than her tuition alone. Almost 10% of St. Agnes’s budget depends on fundraising efforts. Every donation supports our students' growth as leaders of today and tomorrow. From tuition assistance to classroom technology to our exemplary faculty, every gift makes our exceptional educational experience possible. When we each give what we can, whether $5 or $500, we all can all make a big difference in the lives of our Academy women.  

• Are gifts tax deductible?

  Yes. Gifts are 100 percent tax deductible. You will receive an initial tax letter with your gift confirmation. For gifts of $250 or more, you will receive a tax receipt within 10-15 business days.

• Can I give to more than one area?

  Yes, you can make multiple gifts when you check out. Make sure to select “split my gift” on the gift menu to select the other areas you would like to support. Your card will only be charged once for the sum of your donations.

• Why don't all the graduating classes have a class scholarship?

  The Class Scholarship was created in 2010 for seniors of graduating classes to give back to St. Agnes. If your class is interested in learning how to create a class scholarship, please send an email and someone from the Advancement office will be in touch. 
  
  If your class does not have a scholarship, please consider making your gift to the Academy Fund. It supports everything at St. Agnes, including tuition assistance. Your gift will be counted towards the class challenge for your class year.

• How do challenges and matches work?
