How to Get Involved
For 23 years, parents, grandparents, alumni and friends have supported Vail Christian High School’s culture of philanthropy from giving to taking an active role in our school. A long-standing community of Saints with a shared passion for one purpose: to provide students with the best education possible. It has been our goal since 1998.
Gift of Time and Talent
Vail Christian High School is grateful for those who are able to volunteer on campus, on committees and on the field or court. From Parent Association to Theater parents, our families come together. No role is too big or too small.
Gift of Treasure
Like most independent schools, tuition income does not fully fund the true cost of educating each child at Vail Christian High School. Rather, it is supplemented by charitable gifts. Thanks to friends like you, Saints go further than they ever imagined. Every act of service or financial gift expresses a commitment to Vail Christian High School’s long standing goal: providing the best education possible. By investing in VCHS, you can be sure your gift will make a lasting difference in the lives of our students.
Anyone, Anytime, Anywhere Fund
We’ve been working hard to create an exciting future for, and beyond, the 2020-21 school year and made a major technology investment in our classrooms to accelerate our ‘cutting-edge’ momentum. We believe so strongly in learning in community and the highly relational nature of teaching and learning. Our students and teachers deserve the best technology to facilitate human connection that’s such an integral part of school. We will do whatever it takes to ensure our students and teachers can be together whether on campus, at home, or anywhere.
Our campaign – 5 Days | 5 Reasons to Give will support the Anyone, Anytime, Anywhere Fund ensuring our 17 classrooms have all of the technology they need for a rich learning environment for students on campus or students ‘anywhere.’ This investment is necessary for this COVID-19 school year, but more importantly, it’s an investment in VCHS’ future – a direction where the best schools are headed.
The Anyone, Anytime, Anywhere campaign will launch on September 28th and conclude on October 2nd and will energize all of us to nurture a common purpose and responsibility – to grow and enrich our school’s educational resources. Your generous gift is part of that indispensable, community-wide investment in the education of each VCHS student. Make a gift now or make a pledge to the Anyone, Anytime, Anywhere Fund (pledges should be fulfilled by June 30, 2021). Please join us at this exciting time as we create a bright future for VCHS teachers and students.
