Give to Pius X Day

YOU can Make a
Difference on
Give to Pius X Day!!

Your investment in the Fund for Pius X during Give to Pius X Day (GTPD) will continue making it possible for students to pursue their dream of a Pius X education, while helping us recruit and retain excellent faculty and staff.

Pius X filled me with opportunities to seek Jesus individually and in community, and most importantly instilled in me a deep and personal relationship with Him…

Actual Cost Per Student: $8,154

Average Tuition/Fees Per Student: $3,630

Gap Between Cost and Tuition: $4,524
