Fundraising Requirements

Anchor Fund 

 

The Anchor Fund is an annual giving that raises funds for St. Philomena School. The funds help with tuition assistance, school facility and safety improvements and to secure the heritage and tradition of St. Philomena School. No goods or services will be received in exchange for your gift, so it will be tax deductible to the full extent allowed by law. You will receive written recognition of your gift for your tax records.

 

There are many companies with gift matching programs. Please contact your employer’s Human Resources Department for information on matching gifts. St. Philomena School will provide whatever documentation you might need in order to facilitate a matching gift.

  

To make a donation you can call the Development Office at (206) 824-4051 ext. 208, mail contributions with attention to the Development Office to 1815 S 220th Street, Des Moines, WA 98198.
