March Magic: One Day. One Mission. Endless Impact.
Thursday, March 19, 2026 | Feast of St. Joseph
We're launching March Magic, Mount Saint Joseph Academy's first Day of Giving—a 24-hour celebration bringing our entire community together to support the Mount Mission Fund on the Feast of St. Joseph.
From students celebrating our cherished Charity Day tradition to alumnae and families rallying together from near and far, March Magic unites every member of our community in support of the next generation of Mount women.
Why the Mount Mission Fund Matters
The Mount Mission Fund supports every student, every day—funding scholarships, academics, athletics, the arts, and leadership opportunities that shape each student's Mount journey.
Every gift matters. On March Magic, your dollars go farther through sponsor challenge gifts and matching donations that unlock throughout the day.
Let the Magic Begin!
ALL DAY LONG
Tune in for 24 hours of online giving, featuring:
- Giving challenges
- Donor spotlights
- Community updates and surprises throughout the day
Make your gift early! Early donations help us build momentum and inspire others to give.
DURING THE SCHOOL DAY
Students lead the way, demonstrating that giving begins at home.
Students begin the day with Liturgy, followed by meaningful service stations, and conclude with the cherished Charity Day tradition in school—learning that giving starts at home while hearing stories of how every gift strengthens the Mount experience.
