The Fund for Royal Palm Academy

We are very grateful to all who choose to support our mission by making Royal Palm Academy a charitable priority in their lives. Your generosity in the form of a gift to The Fund for Royal Palm Academy (formerly Annual Fund) remains a vote of confidence in our efforts to provide the very best in Catholic education and to enhance student life and activities at Royal Palm Academy. Your gift helps us to close the gap between the cost to educate each student ($18,500) and preserving our tuition as affordable as possible ($14,950-$17,600). Every dollar donated to The Fund for Royal Palm Academy goes directly to the support of our school mission, teachers, students, and their families.

Why is Annual Giving necessary?

Royal Palm Academy needs and deserves your support. Our annual giving program is necessary to sustain the life of the school through enriched academic programs, faculty development, and overall operating expenses. Truly, an annual gift is a vote of confidence in Royal Palm Academy. Additionally, Royal Palm Academy prices our tuition at the most affordable level possible for our families. Our full-pay tuition is priced at $14,950 to $17,600, and more than 35% of our Royal Palm Academy families also receive financial assistance from the school. The actual cost to educate each student at RPA is $18,500 per student. Annual Giving closes the financial gap in our funding and is a vote of confidence in the strength of our program.

Suggested Giving

Families are asked to consider making a financial contribution that equals $1,000 per child enrolled at RPA over the year, or a monthly commitment of $85 per month, per child. Your generosity is a vote of confidence in our program. Families who are receiving financial assistance are asked to make a one-time or monthly donation to the greatest extent possible. For example, please consider making a gift of $20/month per child as a vote of support for the future of Royal Palm Academy and ensuring our ability to continue to provide assistance to our families in need of support.

Recognition

Every gift to The Fund for Royal Palm Academy is important, regardless of how large or small. RPA relies on every family to give because it will take 100% participation to meet our goal to raise $150,000 this year. The Fund for Royal Palm Academy is the foundation of our advancement and giving platform.
