Concord Hill’s Annual Fund is our primary fundraising effort to bridge the gap between tuition and operating expenses.
The importance of our Annual Fund is highlighted by four significant numbers:
-
82%
Tuition covers only 82% of Concord Hill’s annual operating expenses. Each year, tuition is set at a level that keeps it affordable for as many families as possible.
6:1
Our low ratio of six children to one teacher has a dramatic impact on our children every day. This number is the essence of Concord Hill—two full-time teachers in every classroom and a Director who is intimately involved in the life of each class. Annual Fund dollars allow us to offer competitive salaries and benefits to attract and keep our outstanding faculty and staff.
100%
Full parent participation is vital to the Annual Fund’s success. Concord Hill has achieved 100% participation in five out of the last six years—this is a remarkable achievement and truly is our most important goal. This support speaks to the strength of our community. Every gift counts.
$2,761
Each gift of $2,761 or more is recognized as a Challenge Gift. This figure represents the annual per-student gap between tuition and expenses. If your employer has a matching gift program, those matched funds count toward your challenge level.
Every Annual Fund gift is tax-deductible and goes toward the operating budget during the given year. Our Annual Fund ends on June 1 each year and payments must be made by this date. To make a gift to our Annual Fund now, please select the online gift link.
