Simply put, the Annual Fund makes up “the gap" between the price of tuition and the actual educational cost (approximately $2,000 per student). The Annual Fund is used for current-year expenses including faculty salaries, classroom programs, and general operations. The school’s largest ongoing campaign, the Annual Fund is conducted by a team of six co-chairs and over 50 outreach volunteers working to achieve 100% participation among parents.

 

The 2010-2011 Annual Fund runs from July 1, 2010 through June 30, 2011.  Early gifts allow the school the make important budgetary decisions as well as save valuable resources and volunteer time over the course of the year.

Donors of $1,500 or more to the Annual Fund are invited to the Cercle du Proviseur in recognition of their leadership.

Volunteer for the 2010-2011 Annual Fund!

 

The success of the Annual Fund is owed in large part to the dedication and enthusiasm of a large network of parent and alumni volunteers representing all classes at French American and International.  We are fortunate to have many volunteers return each year, but welcome new volunteers as well.  We are currently seeking Class Captains at all grade levels and encourage interested parents to visit the Annual Fund table in the Cafe on the first day of school, or contact Jaime Tollas for more information.
