2021-22 SSPP Annual Fund
Our 2021-2022 Annual Fund Together in Faith Campaign is underway and thanks to donations made on Giving Tuesday we are off to a strong start for reaching our goal of $175,000. The school relies on the Annual Fund to provide the financial resources necessary for our day-to-day operations. With 370 students attending SSPP, that's 370 reasons to make a gift today to the Annual Fund! Thank you in advance for your consideration!
