Annual Giving

  • Annual Giving

    A Preston High School education is truly a gift that lasts a lifetime. Your gift to the Fund for Preston High School—no matter the size—provides scholarship support and vital resources for facility and technology improvements. Your generosity ensures a successful second century at PHS and strengthens our entire community.

    What is the Fund for Preston High School?

    The Fund for PHS supports excellence in education by providing opportunities beyond what tuition and fees cover. As our most important fundraising effort of the year, gifts to the Fund enrich every program: academics, the arts, technology, athletics, campus ministry, and financial aid. The Fund supports our top priorities and makes an immediate difference in the daily lives of students and faculty.

    Why is the Fund Important?

    Your gifts sustain all that you love and appreciate about PHS. They are a meaningful way to participate in the life of the school and ensure that our mission continues to thrive.

    What Does a Gift Support?

    Tuition covers only a portion of the school’s per‑student expenditures. Gifts to the Fund bridge the gap, ensuring continued support for students, academic programs, and facilities.

    Why Give?

    The Fund is the backbone of our fundraising efforts. Without generous support from parents, alumnae, grandparents, and friends, PHS could not maintain its reputation as one of the Bronx’s top Catholic high schools. The key to success is broad participation—every gift, in any amount, is vital to ensuring PHS’s bright future. Together, we make a difference!

    Your Gift in Action

    • Academic Programs: Expansion and maintenance of state‑of‑the‑art technology in classrooms and labs; enhanced educational resources; faculty professional development.
    • Athletics: Excellent coaching for six sports with ten teams, including varsity and junior varsity, plus two club sports—an outstanding program for a school of 350 students.
    • Student Life: Leadership and spiritual development through vibrant Student Life and Campus Ministry programs; service learning in the community.

    • Financial Assistance: 72% of PHS students receive academic or financial aid, ensuring access for qualified students from all economic backgrounds.
