St. Joseph Mission School is in dire need of funding in order to keep its doors open and continue our 90-year tradition of educating children in rural New Mexico. The Diocese of Gallup has recently filed for Chapter 11 Reorganization in Bankruptcy Court and this event has negatively affected our school since a substantial amount of funding is now unavailable. We are a small Catholic elementary school in Northwest New Mexico that serves Native American Pueblo communities as well as a number of nearby Hispanic villages. We ask that you help us weather this storm and allow our school to continue the academic excellence and Catholic education of our children that was founded in 1923 by the Franciscans in San Fidel, New Mexico.
