Annual Gifts to The Banff School
The Banff School Annual Giving Campaign is designed to help the school fund the gap between the cost of providing an exceptional education for our students and the actual income received through your tuition fees without the need to raise tuition substantially for our families.
But I already pay tuition. Shouldn't that cover all of the costs of educating my child?
As with the case of any private school, the answer is, unfortunately, no. Tuition only covers approximately 90% of the costs of educating each student. Without additional support and funds to cover the 10% gap, the integral components of our rich and robust program, which make Banff special and unique, would be compromised. The school could continue to operate if we didn't host any fundraising endeavors...but it is the extra funds raised from events, like our Annual Giving Campaign, that allow us to continue adding new educational programs, improving our campus, expanding our enrichment offerings and continuing to grow our community. Yes, it is an additional expense, but the contribution from every family is appreciated, no matter the amount.
How do I give?
We have made the contribution process as quick and easy as possible. Simply use the Giving link on this page, enter your donation amount, select either one-time, monthly or annually, enter your payment information...and you are done!
