Saint Thomas' Episcopal School

Giving

Sustaining our Mission

Generations of students and their families have built lifelong memories as members of the Saint Thomas’ Episcopal School community.

The role of the Development Office is to foster the mission of STE through purposeful fundraising, special events, community-wide communications, alumni relations, and stewardship. We strive to be a resource within the school community and a liaison for the greater Houston community and beyond.

Generous contributions of resources and time from parents, alumni, alumni parents, faculty, staff, grandparents, and friends make our advancement efforts thrive. It is through the blended efforts of those various groups that the unique character and strong, supportive community of STE has developed. Therefore, we encourage each member of the community to show support of STE not only by contributing funds, but by volunteering time to at least one event or program each year. If you’d like to volunteer, please don’t hesitate to contact the Development Office at 713.666.3111.
