www.stmarksschool.org/giveHow to give

St. Mark’s is a place of learning; of friendships; of timeless values. Our gifts make that possible for the St. Markers of tomorrow.Gifts to the Annual Fund bridge the 36 percent gap between tuition and the actual cost of a St. Mark’s education—a difference of $21,670 per student per year. The Annual Fund offers direct relief to the operating budget including student scholarships, the arts, athletics, facilities, and faculty salaries. It makes up 11 percent of the School’s total operating budget. Every aspect of the School depends upon our Annual Fund contributions.

As recent graduates, you have a unique way to support St. Mark’s— as a young alumnus member of the Founder’s Associates.
