Pacific Crest School Annual Giving 2012-2013
Our Goal: 100% Giving for Our Children!
We ask families to contribute in support of the people, programs and community that make Pacific Crest School unique. 100% participation is expected with each family contributing to the best of their ability. The Campaign’s success helps ensure the continuation of high quality programs today and into the future.
How Much Should I Give?
We ask that each family contribute according to their means. This year’s requested average contribution per family is $550.
Why Not Just Raise Tuition?
Pacific Crest strives to maintain moderate tuitions compared to other private schools. Donations also give our parents and supporters the opportunity to make a tax-deductible gift to the school according to their means. (Tax ID# 91-1486734)
Can I Pledge Now and Pay Later?
Yes! Please indicate your payment schedule on your pledge card. Online donations must be paid at time of pledge.
A Tradition of Giving
For over 15 years, our Annual Giving Campaign has provided an essential contribution to the operating funds of Pacific Crest School. It remains one of the most important sources of income after tuition.
Sustaining Affordability
The Giving Campaign enables us to keep tuition costs affordable for a wider range of families. It also allows us to provide scholarships to families who otherwise could not afford our school’s outstanding programs.
How to Give
Donating to the Annual Giving Campaign is easy! Credit card payments are accepted online (see the sidebar on the right) or you can fill out a pledge card and return it with your check(s) to Pacific Crest. Various payment schedules are available.
In-kind Gifts
If you would like to give stock or other securities, please contact the school info@pacificcrest.org for transfer instructions.
Volunteers
Many families give very generously of their time. This gift of time is invaluable but does not replace necessary financial support.
Corporate Match
Many employers—including Microsoft, Boeing, Adobe, The Gates Foundation and Starbucks—match donations, so be sure to ask your employer if they have a program. Please email the school info@pacificcrest.org if you have questions regarding an employer match.
Family and Friends
This is a great opportunity to invite grandparents and special friends to make a tax deductible contribution toward your child’s education.
Tax Deductible
Gifts to the Giving Campaign are tax deductible as a charitable donation:
