Endowment
We are deeply committed to increasing the value of our endowment, which will ensure that a Saint James education remains in reach for all qualified students for generations to come. Gifts to the Saint James endowment are invested, much like a mutual fund, to provide a steady, long-term secure funding for its most important needs:
- Competitive salaries for faculty;
- Financial aid for deserving students; and
- Investment in new programs.
Income from the endowment covers approximately 10 percent of the School’s operating budget. Growing the endowment will allow Saint James to remain competitive in the independent school market by continuing to provide a world-class education. The future is full of challenges and opportunities for Saint James, and a stronger endowment will ensure we have the security to meet them head on.

Gifts to the Endowment are made in two ways:
Planned Giving
Planned gifts can provide donors with significant tax savings. They also allow many families and individuals to financially support causes important to them in ways that would otherwise be unattainable. Examples of planned gifts include bequests, beneficiary designations, or trusts. Learn more about how you can make an impact through a planned gift.
Dunnan Endowment Fund
After more than 30 years of dedicated service, Father Dunnan has decided to retire in June of 2027, marking the end of a significant chapter in Saint James School's history. We encourage you to honor his legacy of transformational leadership at Saint James by supporting the Dunnan Endowment Fund.
