While tuition and fees are our primary source of revenue, they do not fully cover the cost of educating our students. That’s why we rely on the SVF Annual Fund and Financial Aid Appeal to bridge the gap and ensure that every child has access to an exceptional Catholic education. There are many ways to support SVF, and every contribution—large or small—makes a lasting impact.
Thank you for being a part of our community and investing in the future of our students!
SVF Annual Fund – Ensuring Our Future
​The SVF Annual Fund is an ongoing charitable giving initiative designed to secure the long-term sustainability of our school. As the backbone of our fundraising efforts, it supports key goals outlined in our School Strategic Plan.
Like many Catholic schools, SVF faces challenges such as fluctuating enrollment and rising operational costs. Tuition and traditional fundraising alone do not fully cover the cost of educating our students. Across the country, Catholic and private schools depend on Annual Funds to bridge this gap—and SVF is doing the same.​
​
Schools without high enrollments or with less robust fundraising programs must look for additional revenue sources to close the funding gap that often exists between operating revenue and the cost to operate the school. We are grateful for the generosity of the entire SVF community over the years for their generous fundraising to help reduce this gap but our goal going forward is to close the funding gap and work toward sustainability. As our enrollment grows we can surpass the funding gap and count on additional resources to help our school keep growing.

Contribute to our Financial Aid Fund
Changing lives through education.
For years, the Annual Appeal for Financial Aid has been the heart of St. Vincent Ferrer School’s tuition assistance program, making Catholic education possible for students who may otherwise not be able to afford it.
​
We believe that every child deserves the opportunity to grow in faith, knowledge, and service—and many SVF families make significant sacrifices to provide this life-changing education for their children. However, some still need additional financial support.
Your tax-deductible donation to the Financial Aid Appeal helps us open doors for more students, giving them the chance to thrive academically, spiritually, and personally. Our graduates go on to top high schools and become part of a strong network of accomplished alumni—and your support plays a vital role in their success.
Every gift, no matter the amount, makes a difference. Thank you for being part of our mission to serve others and build a brighter future for all!
