Why Give?

At Everest, we provide our children with award-winning academics, championship athletics, and the building blocks critical to becoming Catholic Christian leaders. Your support is essential for Everest to continue fulfilling its mission.

Why consider giving to a private school that already charges tuition? Some families tell us they give as a way of saying, “thank you,” for the intangible gifts their children – and they themselves – receive by being part of the Everest family. Some give because they know it allows Everest to support others who cannot fully afford the cost of tuition. 

And others give because it’s an opportunity to practice good stewardship, to give thanks for their abundant blessings, and to practice the virtue of generosity. We teach our children to be people of upstanding character: giving is one way we demonstrate this character to them.

We encourage giving at any level, by all families, even those receiving tuition assistance, because it demonstrates to our business sponsors and granting partners the commitment our families have to the school.

Make a Lasting Impact

Every donation, regardless of size, makes a lasting impact at Everest.

Everest Collegiate High School & Academy Inc. is a 501(c)(3) organization. Your gift is tax-deductible up to the limit set by law.

Annual Fund Drive

The annual fund drive bridges the gap between the cost of tuition and the full expense of educating an Everest student. Recent annual fund drives have supported investments in staff, faculty, technology, and student life.

The benefit of the annual fund drive is that, unlike tuition, the gift is tax-deductible.
