The 2004-2005 Annual Fund Campaign "Turning Silver into Gold" kicked off on July 1 2004 with the start of the new fiscal year.  For further information please contact Cindy Bobruk, Director of Development

The Annual Fund provides essential operating support for St. Margaret’s Episcopal School and is one of the school’s highest fundraising priorities.  Gifts to the Annual Fund are received each year and are reported in the school’s financial statement as income and expense during the current school year for operations and enhancements that are not fully funded by tuition. At St. Margaret’s, current parents account for 78 percent of total annual giving and other individuals (including grandparents) make up 12 percent. Ten percent comes from foundations, corporations, and other organizations.
