The advancement program at St. John’s School is focused in a manner that is somewhat unique to day schools. Rather than multiple appeals for philanthropic support during the course of the year, emphasis is placed on the
St. John’s Fund, which provides unrestricted funds for support of the overall mission of the School. These funds provide a measure of excellence that directly benefits the student experience.
The St. John’s Fund is the foundation of the philanthropic program at St. John’s. Since there is not a series of other appeals such as a gala, auction or other official fundraising programs, families are asked to make a thoughtful single philanthropic gift in support of the mission of St. John’s.
