We are so appreciative of our supporters and donors. Without them, we would not be able to meet our operating costs, make building and technology improvements, and provide scholarships to our families.
There are many ways you can support our school. Explore all the options below.
Our Current Fundraisers
We have to continually fundraise to support our operating budget, keep tuition costs low for families by providing financial aid, buying classroom supplies, and make building and technology improvements.
Classroom Wish Lists
Support our classrooms by purchase an item or two from their wish lists.
Other Ways to Support Us
Donate Gently Used Clothing and Linens
Donate your gently used clothing, drapes, bedding, shoes, and stuffed animals to our St. Pauly Textile shed located in the large parking lot of the school. We receive a money monthly based on the weight of the donations. Please DO NOT place rags, household items, fabric, toys, pillows, or other non-clothing and linen items in this shed.
Box Tops for Education
Download the Box Tops App on your phone. Search for SS Francis DeSales - Stephen. Shop for the items that qualify and scan your receipt.
Bottles and Cans
Drop off your bottles and cans to any of the Dad's Cans locations (Geneva or Waterloo). Mention the school and they will be sure to send us the money. We have a white bin in the large school parking lot for bottle and can donations.
Monetary and Gifts in Kind Donations
We accept monetary donations all year long. We receive donations in memory of alumni, parishioners, and family members. All monetary donations are used to support the school operations or provide financial assistance to reduce tuition costs to families.
If interested in making a monetary donation, please mail checks to 17 Elmwood Ave. Geneva, NY 14456 or they may be dropped off to the school or parish office during operating hours.
We do accept gifts in kind.
We have received classroom supply donations and office supplies such as copy paper. Please check out the teacher wish lists above to see what specifically we are looking for.
There are many events we have baskets or item raffles. We are always accepting gift cards/certificates or unopened/unwanted new items to include in these baskets.
Be a prayer partner
We understand that not everyone can make monetary or gift donations, so we ask that you be a partner in prayer for our school.
We pray together everyday at 8:15 am and at 2:20 pm. If you would like to say a prayer at that time for our students, their families, and the school, we would greatly appreciate it. We pray for our donors and supporters everyday.
Each month, we attend Mass together at St. Stephen Church. all our welcome to join us on these days at 8:30 am.
