Support St. Joe's
Your generosity keeps tuition affordable
Fundraising helps keep a St. Joseph Marquette education within reach for more families. Each year, our Parent Board works to raise more than $252,000 in support of the school, and thanks to the generosity of our families and community, that goal is consistently achieved. Beyond the dollars, getting involved is one of the best ways to build relationships and strengthen our school community.
