A diverse and creative education is what you love about Orca. Yet each year public funding declines and programs that are essential to this well-rounded education are no longer supported. Music and arts, a well-stocked library, and outdoor education would not exist if Orca relied solely on public funding. They will only survive because of contributions from our community.
This year's Annual Fund Drive will raise funds to ensure that the programs that make Orca unique will continue to flourish in our new building and with the addition of middle school grades. The Orca Garden, library books, tutoring, music, and arts all rely on our donations. Your tax-deductible donation to the Annual Fund gives our children tools for academic success and programs that foster a lifelong love of learning.
Look for your Annual Fund letter coming in the mail, or you can make your donation online here...
No donation is too small or too large! With the support of caring Orca families, friends, alumni and neighbors, this year's Annual Fund Drive will be a great success.
Please spread the word to help Orca meet its Annual Fund goal! For instructions on how to add an Orca Annual Fund donation meter to your facebook, myspace, blog or personal webpage, please visit:
