VSCA is proud to tell you about our Annual Fund 2015/2016.
What is the Annul Fund?
The Annual Fund is a yearlong process asking all of its constituents to financially and prayerfully support VSCA through an annual appeal. It provides essential monetary support to meet the school's growing need for financial resources that enhance the quality of the education for each and every student.
Why does Valley Stream Christian Academy have an Annual Fund?
To provide an affordable Christian education for children, our school can no longer rely solely on tuition and a variety of fundraisers. It must seek other avenues and resources of funding. It helps offset the difference between tuition income and the actual cost of educating each student.
Who supports the Annual Fund?
Alumni, school parents, church members, businesses, grandparents and other friends of the school are invited to support the Annual Fund.
How will the funds be used?
1) To equip students by providing up-to-date curriculum materials, educational equipment, and technology as they are vital to preparing students for kingdom impact.
2) To support families, as that is where God's plan for raising children begins. Some families who desire an exemplary Christ-centered education are unable to provide full tuition for their children. Your gifts allow students to receive a Christian education who might not otherwise have that opportunity.

Is my gift tax-deductible?
Yes! VSCA is a recognized 501 (c) (3) non-profit organization and all gifts made to the school are tax-deductible. Reminder, tuition is not. Gifts can be in the form of a pledge paid over time or by a one time contribution. Contributions can be made through company matching gifts.
Why is it important for every family to participate in the AF?
Every dollar assists your child(ren) with a stronger educational program. The goal is for all parents to contribute something to show support and appreciation for our dynamic school.

Last year, we raised over $20,000. That money was used to support our budget, give scholarship money to deserving students, and equipment for our new science lab.
Our goal for this school year is to raise $100,000!
Think of all that can be done with this money.
Please prayerfully consider partnering with VSCA!
