Matching Gifts Program - Many companies offer their employees, spouses, and retirees an opportunity to support a favorite charity, while providing a matching gift. Funds received through these programs provide a direct benefit to the students at Saint Mary Catholic School.  A company's Human Resources Department can offer further details if they offer this benefit and instructions on submitting requests to their Matching Gift Program.  The Parish Business Office will be happy to assist in the processing of any required paperwork. Please call 610.287.8156. 

Saint Mary Tuition Angel Program - The Tuition Angel program provides direct assistance to families who may need financial help in order to afford a Catholic Education.  A donation to this program truly makes a difference in a child's spiritual and educational formation.  The Parish Business Office is happy to assist with any questions concerning this program or assist you with making a donation. Please call 610.287.8156.

Saint Mary Catholic School Endowment Fund  -  Saint Mary Catholic School Endowment Fund supports the long term initiatives and goals of Saint Mary Catholic School.  Currently the Endowment Fund supports two initiatives:

• The Learning Support Center  

• The Office of Enrollment, Retention & Advancement

These two initiatives play an important role in meeting our school's goal.  The Learning Support Center's goal is to assist each student to work to their potential, become motivated, self-reliant, and a lifelong learner.  The Office of Enrollment, Retention & Advancement's goal is to ensure the long term sustainability of our school through on-going marketing, parent satisfaction, and assisting with fund raising.
  
We invite individuals or corporations to partner with us to ensure the continued success of these initiatives by making a contribution of any amount, in cash, property or appreciated securities.  Please contact the Parish Business Office at 610.287.8156.

EITC Program - For corporations or businesses authorized to do business in Pennsylvania, and some individuals may contribute under the Pennsylvania Educational Tax Credit Program (EITC). Contributions of any amount up to a maximum of $300,000 per taxable year can earn tax credits equal to 75% to 90% of the amount donated. The EITC tax credits can be used against corporate net income tax, capital stock franchise tax (and other specific corporate taxes) or personal income tax of sub-S corporation shareholders or Partnership partners. Contributions made in this manner support BLOCS Scholarships (Business Leaders Organized for Catholic Schools). These tax credits when designated to Saint Mary Catholic School turn in to BLOCS Scholarship money and will assist qualified families with financial aid for tuition assistance.
