• 100for100 Fund – Celebrating our 100th anniversary also requires preparing for the future. Our new “100for100 Fund” will help strengthen our endowment fund. Consider giving this year in some form of 100: $1.00, $10.00, $100, $1,000. Every gift has value, and no gift is too small. We are all called to prepare St. Philip’s for the future.
