Annual Fund

 


The Annual Fund is a fundraising program that helps finance the day-to-day experience of every Collegiate student. Gifts of all types come from parents, alumnae/i, faculty, and staff, parents of alumnae/i, former faculty and staff, grandparents, and friends. Tuition alone does not cover the full expenses of an independent school education. Like other schools and colleges, Collegiate relies on gifts to help bridge the gap between tuition income and annual operating expenses.

 

Contributions to Louisville Collegiate School’s Annual Fund go directly to the operations of the School, making up a portion of the school’s budget. Your generosity helps Collegiate attract and retain the brightest faculty who prepare our students for a complex and ever-changing world. Philanthropic support designated to Collegiate’s endowment and facilities ensures a quality education for future generations.

 

The fund also supports unique experiences in the arts and athletics. When a student opens a school iPad, signs up for Mock Trial, or turns on a light switch, your gift to the Annual Fund has played a role in affording the Collegiate experience.
