Jaguar Jackpot

$20,000 Could be Yours!

The Jaguar Jackpot raffle is Saint Joseph Academy’s student-driven fundraiser dedicated to supporting every young woman who attends the Academy. Proceeds from the raffle provide vital financial assistance by helping bridge the gap between tuition and the true cost of a Saint Joseph Academy education.

By participating in the Jaguar Jackpot, you help make an Academy education more accessible to students from all financial backgrounds. Join us in reaching our goal of ensuring every young woman has the opportunity to receive a quality, faith-filled education at Saint Joseph Academy.
Beginning Wednesday, September 2 students will begin selling Jaguar Jackpot raffle tickets online!

For just $10, you'll have the chance to win exciting cash prizes while supporting Saint Joseph Academy. Even better, every ticket you purchase gives the student who sold it a chance to earn cash prizes, too!

Most importantly, every ticket helps bridge the gap between tuition and the true cost of a Saint Joseph Academy education, making a lasting impact on every Jaguar.
