What is the Annual Campaign and Whom Does it Benefit?

Each year, through our Annual Campaign, we raise the money necessary to bridge the gap between what tuition covers and the cost of running an exceptional non-profit school.  Our campaign is a critical piece to ensuring Santa Fe Prep continues to provide a level of secondary education unprecedented in northern New Mexico—one that ensures a world of possibilities and a bright future are opened for each child.  Our Annual Campaign directly benefits each student, each teacher, and each program every day.  During 2011-2012 our goal is to raise $600,000 to benefit the people of Prep.

Santa Fe Prep’s annual tuition is $18,355, but it costs more than $21,338 to educate every student. So, in a sense, every student at Prep is on a scholarship—a scholarship that is supported by income from our modest endowment, foundation grants, and, most importantly, generous gifts to the Annual Campaign that come from parents, alumni, grandparents, Board members, former parents, faculty and friends of the School.

Parents who preceded us stepped up to make donations that helped build our beautiful campus, develop our award-winning programs, and create Prep’s excellent reputation—all while showing a true commitment to fiscal responsibility.  Today, donations from the Annual Campaign ensure an education for our students that instills critical and global thinking and a lifelong passion for discovery.  Donations also ensure that our students are inspired by some of the finest teachers in the country.  Finally, our donations help ensure our children have access to the world’s finest colleges and universities upon graduation.
