Ways to Give to SFHS

Fundraising is a vital part our culture.  We are committed to continuing the St. Francis traditions of faith, leadership, excellence and service.

Through gifts of time, talent, and treasure, the philanthropy of our community supports outstanding programs and facilities, and provides tuition assistance to more than 24 percent of our families.
