The Advancement Office is excited that school is officially back in session and we know everyone is happy to be back by the Lakeside!
Our students are at the core of everything we do and our students depend on Darlington; likewise, Darlington depends on you and on the financial generosity of our community to ensure we are able to uphold our mission to empower students to learn with passion, act with integrity, and serve with respect. We are financially self-sustaining with 80% of our funding coming from tuition and the other 20% from philanthropic sources.
As we kick off the year, we wanted to share two ways the Advancement Office will be reaching out to you this fall - The Darlington Fund and GOAL!
The Darlington Fund
Annual giving is our number one fundraising priority as these gifts support our students and teachers daily. The Darlington Fund supports 6% of the overall operating budget, bridging that gap between tuition and the true cost of the Darlington experience. Gifts may be made via debit/credit card, cash, check, or stock. Our fiscal year runs from June 1 to May 31.
GOAL
Give the gift of a Darlington education. The Georgia GOAL Scholarship Program is a win-win-win for taxpayer donors, scholarship recipients, and our school community. By simply contributing to GOAL for a 100% Georgia income tax credit, you will help maximize this source of financial aid for deserving families desiring to receive a Darlington education.
