Other ways of giving:

Capital Campaign

Capital gifts make equipment purchases and unusually expensive physical improvements possible. The school's annual maintenance budget simply can't keep pace with the needs of our historic building.

Endowment

The John Bapst Endowment, carefully managed by a committee of the Board, has assets of over $800,000. A maximum of 5% of that corpus is used annually for scholarship purposes, helping students both to afford a John Bapst education and to pursue their educations in college.

The John Bapst Memorial High School Foundation

The John Bapst Memorial High School Foundation is a separate charitable organization whose purpose is to provide financial support to John Bapst with an emphasis on underwriting capital projects and expenditures.
