Investing in What Matters Most

The UCHS Annual Fund is a critical source of funding for every student’s experience at UCHS.  The Annual Fund runs annually from November 1 – April 30 and all gifts are tax-deductible. 

The Annual Fund essentially bridges the gap between tuition and the actual cost of educating our students, keeping a focus on academic distinction, robust classroom initiatives, college readiness, leadership opportunities, technology, and campus facilities upkeep and renewal.

Nearly all independent schools rely on annual donations because tuition doesn't cover the full cost of educating each child. UCHS is no different.  We relay on annual donations from our parents, grandparents, alumni, foundations and friends to fund part of our operating budget. 

UCHS Board of Directors is committed to keeping tuition affordable and a UCHS education accessible to all of our families.  The Annual Fund allows us to maintain a diverse student body, a world-class faculty, small class sizes and exceptional programs in all facets of school life, from academics to the arts and athletics

Absolutely!  Every dollar and every donor makes a huge impact on the Annual Fund. Regardless of the amount, your support shows your belief in the mission, vision, and leadership of UCHS while increasing our giving percentages.  Outside Foundations see this figure as an indicator of a strong school when considering grant proposals.
