The Flintridge Fund is our most important fundraising effort. It is a line item in our current year operating budget, representing about 7% of the total. Annual gifts make up most of the difference between what tuition covers and the actual cost of educating each student (about $5,000 per student).
Our annual giving season is every year from July 1 to June 30 and annual gifts range generally from $10 to more than $50,000. Everyone is asked to participate.
Gifts to the Flintridge Fund are tax-deductible and support the extra things that make our school great such as small class sizes (that is, teacher salaries), professional development for faculty and staff, an extended financial aid and scholarship program and enhanced and expanded curricular and co-curricular programs.
In the end, it’s all about the girls. What’s it all about for you?
