I love Westminster because it is a family. Each person at the school cares about my children in every aspect of their lives-physically, emotionally, and spiritually. I know God placed my children at WCA and that is a great feeling!

The WCA Board made a decision a few years ago to eliminate "fundraisers" and to develop Westminster's Annual Fund program. Most of us parents are happy that we no longer need to sell cokes or candy bars or greeting cards but are asked to give just once a year to our Annual Fund instead. This year's Annual Fund goals are: $110,000 and 100% Family Participation!
A verse we have printed on each pledge card is from II Corinthians 9: "Each man should give what he has decided in his heart to give, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver." That is our heart and our intent. We don't want to pressure parents to give; we want to invite them to prayerfully consider and talk together about what amount they can cheerfully give to our Annual Fund.
Our Annual Fund this year will go to budget items like financial need-based scholarships, student curriculum, library books, teacher supplies, and art supplies. Your generous gifts round out our income needs and allow us to fund these and other special projects!
We are so honored by all the ways that Westminster parents pitch in at our school. We hope you'll click on the Volunteer Opportunities at WCA link to see some of the opportunities and sign up yourself!
