Support Saint Bernard School
Donations via check can be sent to the school anytime! Mail to:
Saint Bernard School
1593 Norwich-New London Tpke.
Uncasville, CT 06382
As a private, Catholic school we rely solely on tuition and donations as our two sources of revenue. Gifts to The Fund for Saint Bernard (our annual fund) provide financial support to help keep Saint Bernard School strong. Your donation will provide immediate support for every part of the Saint Bernard School experience, including academic programs, athletics, the arts, technology, financial aid, and campus ministry.
The Saints Athletics fund will support Saint Bernard’s various fall, winter, and spring athletic teams and their necessities, as well as the overall athletic program.
Your donation will support the Visual & Performing Arts program to support the necessities of art, drama, music, etc.
Retirement Giving
The IRS requires those 73 and older to make Required Minimum Distributions (RMDs) from their retirement accounts before the end of the year. Now is when you have to pay taxes on portions of the money from IRAs or 401-Ks. You can designate a non-profit like St. Bernard School as the direct recipient of some of the money! Your donation to SBS goes directly from your retirement fund to the school — never touching your hands and never resulting in any tax. (The IRS says you can start making these tax-free donations from your retirement funds at age 70 ½ — though you’re not required to begin taking your RMDs until 73.)
