Credo Foundation
Credo High Foundation is the nonprofit associated with the school that helps bridge the gap in funding, from what is received from state and Federal funds, and what is actually needed to provide the robust and important programming that makes Credo unique. Who is part of Credo High Foundation? YOU ARE! All Credo families students, families and staff, as well as the wider community that supports Credo make up The Foundation.
The Credo High School Foundation is dedicated to supporting the school’s mission by fostering community engagement and providing essential financial resources. We strive to build strong connections among families, educators, and local organizations to enhance the educational environment at Credo High School. Through our efforts, we aim to ensure that every student has access to innovative programs and opportunities that enrich their learning experience and empower them to succeed. Together, we cultivate a vibrant community that champions the success of our school and its students.
Giving Opportunities
-
At Credo, students thrive in a well-rounded, dynamic 8-period schedule filled with music, art, and a wide range of electives. They head out on adventure learning trips, and they get personal guidance from school and college counselors. And as a small school, Credo is a close-knit, welcoming community. The Credo High Foundation provides much of the extra support that makes these experiences possible.
This year, our goal is to raise at least $525,000, with 100% of Credo families participating. That works out to about $1,500 per student, or $125 a month over a year.
We know that number isn’t within reach for everyone. About one-third of our families qualify as low-income under federal guidelines. If you’re able, please consider giving $3,000 to cover your student and one more. Even at that level, it’s about a tenth of what private school tuition typically costs, for an education that’s every bit as rich.
Giving is always voluntary, and every gift counts, whether it’s $10 or $10,000. What matters most is that every family takes part, at whatever level works for them. Together, we make Credo possible.
All donations are voluntary, and every gift makes a difference, no matter the size. Participation at any level helps us reach our goal. Credo High Foundation is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, and donations are tax-deductible to the extent allowed by law. Tax ID: 27-0816404.
