Gifts to the endowments provide a permanent source of income to the school while allowing the principal to grow for years to come. The funds are invested in perpetuity with a designated percentage of the earned income available for use on an annual basis. Strong endowments allow Bishop McGuinness to meet the needs of increasing costs and keep tuition affordable for all families seeking an exceptional Catholic education rooted in our mission.
