Two Primary Fundraisers Each Year: “The Gifts We Live By”
- The Annual Fund (October – June) supports the school’s yearly operations by closing the gap between tuition and the actual cost of our program. Our goal in 2024–2025 is $390,000 in donations with 100% participation from our families, our Board of Trustees, and our faculty and staff. Every gift makes a difference!
- The Gala & Auction in the spring supports key priorities of the school, such as scholarships, technology, FAN (fund-a-need) special projects, and support of the operating budget.
We ask that all families participate in each of these fundraisers since they benefit every student at the school. Donations are tax-deductible and can often be matched by corporate gift programs.
Capital Campaigns: “The Gifts We Grow By”
Capital gifts help the school grow. The French American School of Puget Sound has conducted two successful capital campaigns: The first in 2004 helped construct the new campus, and the second in 2007 supported the addition of the second floor and classroom enhancements. We are preparing for another campaign for our
Seattle Permanent Home Project.
