About

The First Annual Giving Day is here! Help us kick off the 96th DCD Olympics by supporting the Annual Fund!

Which team are you — Red, White, or Blue?

The Olympics are one of DCD's most beloved traditions— whether you’re an alum, past parent, or current member of the community, competing for the Red, White, or Blue team is likely a most-treasured DCD memory!

Now, we're bringing the supportive spirit and competitive fun of the DCD Olympics to you! Just as our students will support their teams in the DCD Olympics on June 6, we're asking all members of our community to lend your support to DCD on our First Annual Giving Day! 

Our goal is to inspire our entire DCD community to take part in this ONE DAY in support of the DCD Annual Fund.

We're in a Final Sprint!

What an incredible day for DCD!

Team Blue took the trophy in yesterday's Olympics and DCD made history with our first annual Giving Day! 

Thank you to our dedicated DCD community who came together to support Red, White, and Blue on the fields and philanthropically. We are grateful to everyone who made a gift and spread the word in the spirit of the 96th Olympic games!

But just when we thought the race was over, we were approached with a Bonus Challenge to help us cross the finish line!

BONUS CHALLENGE

The anonymous middle school family who generously gave $2,000 yesterday is giving an additional $6,000 if we hit our goal of 196 donors!

We are sprinting toward the finish line! Stay Tuned!
