Annual Giving 2025-2026

Supporting Christ Church Episcopal Preschool

Every gift matters, regardless of size. We believe that everyone can experience the joy of giving and take pride in supporting the mission and future of CCEP!

Please help us reach 100% participation!

Christ Church Episcopal Preschool is a non-profit organization. CCEP’s annual operating income is comprised of tuition income, the endowment draw, non-tuition income (such as summer camp, extended day, and holiday camps), and fundraising. Rather than charging the full amount of tuition, fundraising is one way to help fill the gap, allowing us to keep tuition lower. As a non-profit, gifts from donors are tax-deductible.

In addition to tuition, gifts to the Annual Fund impact every student and teacher to make CCEP an exceptional early childhood experience for all our students.

Fundraising consists of income from CCEP-sponsored events and donations from our generous community. The needs of the school fluctuate annually based on instructional needs, enrollment, capital projects, and maintaining competitive teacher salaries and benefits. All these components play a vital role in the health of our school from a day-to-day operating perspective.

Priorities

People

We strive to recruit and retain the most dedicated, caring, and talented faculty. The Annual Fund supports teaching and staff positions as well as high-quality, continuous professional development. And on average, we award $60,000 in financial aid annually to teachers and families.

Places

CCEP has an amazing and unique 22-acre campus complete with three expansive playgrounds, tree swings, an outdoor classroom, and nature trails. Ongoing maintenance and renovations are necessary to maintain the grounds, to replace and upgrade carpets, materials, and supplies.

Programs

Extra-curricular programs such as Music, Spanish, Art, and Godly Play classes enhance each child’s exposure to multi-sensory experiences vital to their healthy development. Community learning projects and in-house field trips distinguish CCEP from other early childhood programs.

We invite you to support the Annual Fund at CCEP!
