When are Annual Fund Gifts Due?
Annual Fund contributions are solicited in the Fall. They are due
by June 30 of each calendar year. The fiscal year for the Annual Fund
is July 1- June 30. The costs of an annual fund drive are significant
- printing, mailing, record keeping and follow-up. As a result we
ask that you respond quickly to help us keep our costs down. Decide
what level you want to support the school annually by sending in your
donation without prompting.
Who is Asked to Participate in the Annual Fund?
The entire McGill-Toolen community - parents, alumni, faculty, staff, grandparents of current students, and friends are all asked to participate in the Annual Fund.
How Are Annual Fund Dollars Used?
Annual Fund revenues are a part of the budgeted operating revenues
for teachers' salaries. McGill-Toolen must have these monies to operate.
Annual Fund dollars are also used for the Endowment, CHSAAM (Catholic
High Schools of Mobile Alumni Association) operating expenses and
special projects designated annually by the president.
How Can I Make a Gift?
Solicitations for the Annual Fund are mailed each Fall. You may pledge
or make a gift at that time. Gifts may be made in the form of cash,
checks, stocks, or other investments. VISA and MASTERCARD are also
accepted. Contact the Development Office at (251) 441-0809 for more
details or a pledge envelope.
