Annual Giving Program
The quality of education Presentation provides comes with significant cost, one that is not fully covered by tuition. Our Annual Giving Program helps us make up the shortfall between actual educational costs and tuition. This year, that shortfall stands at $2,662 per student. In order to continue to provide superb programs for our students, we must raise these additional dollars each year. Gifts made to the Annual Giving Program make up this shortfall.

Direct Aid Scholarship Program
In order for Presentation to remain a school that continues to accept students regardless of their family's ability to pay, scholarship funds must continue to grow. Each year the requests for financial aid double. Unfortunately, scholarship funds have not. The cost of education is continuing to escalate, so we must rely on the generosity of our supporters to help meet this challenge. Yearly gifts to these funds will ensure that any qualified student, regardless of ability to pay tuition, may receive a Presentation education.

Endowment Program
Great private schools have one thing in common — a robust endowment.  A healthy endowment underwrites programs essential to the mission of the school, ensures the growth of financial aid for students, provides a safety net should an unexpected crisis occur, helps control tuition increases, communicates financial stability to donors, and represents a commitment to the long- term future of the school.

Alumnae Endowment
Presentation’s Alumnae Endowment was established in 2003 to meet a growing need for financial aid. The fund was started as a way for our graduates to ensure that the education they received would be available to any qualified student regardless of their family’s ability to pay tuition. Only the interest earned on the endowment is used, and your gift remains in the fund in perpetuity.
