Planned Giving

How Will You Be Remembered?

With a thoughtful plan and a generous heart, you can help secure the future of St. Pius X Catholic High School. A planned gift creates a powerful legacy, allowing you to make a meaningful, lasting impact as a faithful steward of God’s gifts—both today and for generations to come.

The Chi-Rho Society

The Chi-Rho Society recognizes donors who have made provisions for St. Pius X in their financial and estate planning. Each year we honor Society members at the annual Deo Gratias Society Luncheon hosted by the Catholic Foundation of North Georgia. 

Interested in Leaving a Legacy?

Like other financial decisions, a planned gift must be chosen and shaped with care. St. Pius X welcomes the opportunity to discuss ways to include the school in your financial and estate plans. Contact Director of Advancement Jenn Sedlack at jsedlack@spx.org or 404-633-4290 x273 to start the conversation. If you’ve already included St. Pius X in your planning, please let us know by filling out this form. Thank you!
 

Tom Novack

In the mid-1990s, Tom Novack discovered the St. Pius X community when a neighbor suggested a local high school football game. Attending alone, he was immediately welcomed with a simple gesture of fellowship: a hot dog from the concession stand.

Touched by the kindness, Tom and his wife, Joanne, began volunteering. Over the years, they eventually ran the entire concession operation—which was later named in their honor. Though Tom wasn't an alumnus and the couple had no children of their own, they considered the Pius students, teachers, and coaches to be their true family.

When Tom passed away in 2021, he and Joanne left their entire estate to St. Pius X. This incredible gift supported the Ring the Bells campaign and further endowed the Novack Family Scholarship Fund, ensuring their legacy lives on.
A planned gift, no matter the size, makes a profound difference—safeguarding the future for generations of students to come.
