Your gift to the Annual Fund 2011-2012 is a powerful way to ensure an enriched Marymount experience for every child. The Annual Fund is our largest fundraising effort with contributions directly supporting the current year’s operating budget, including teacher salaries, tuition assistance, athletics, technology, and educational programs. Annually, Marymount of Santa Barbara generates about 80% of the financial resources it needs to successfully implement its programs through tuition revenues. The balance of funds needed to operate our school is provided through charitable gifts. Traditionally, the Annual Fund is vitally important to bridge the gap between what is paid in tuition and the actual cost of a Marymount education. Over the years, Marymount has increased and improved our educational program well beyond our yearly tuition increases. It is thanks to the generosity and commitment of the Marymount community that we are able to continue to improve Marymount and all that we offer our children.
