This is Kingdom work. And today, you have a powerful opportunity to be part of it.

We are excited to launch Three for Today, Four for Their Futures, a bold campaign that reflects our commitment to both immediate needs and long-term sustainability.

Three for Today focuses on raising $300,000 in gifts that will strengthen our school right now—helping us to fulfill the current need for tuition assistance for children this year.

 

At the same time, Four for Their Futures aims to build a $4 million Scholarship Endowment Fund. This visionary fund will provide perpetual tuition assistance, ensuring cost is never a barrier for a child with a calling. By collecting rather than waiving these funds, Heritage can attract and retain passionate teachers with competitive salaries, invest in vital building improvements, and expand enriching experiences for every student.

 

Your partnership in this campaign is an investment not only in students today but also in the future of our entire community. Together, we can continue Heritage’s legacy of excellence and faith—lighting the way for generations to come.

Four for their Futures:

The $4 Million Scholarship Endowment

For many of our families, the desire for a Christ-centered education is deep, but the financial means are limited. At Heritage Christian School, we’ve always worked to make sure cost is not a barrier. But in the absence of a scholarship endowment, we’ve often had to waive or absorb tuition costs—stretching limited resources and placing added pressure on our teachers, programs, and facilities.

 

We are launching a $4 million scholarship endowment fund—a permanent source of funding that will provide tuition assistance for generations to come. Every dollar given will be invested, with the earnings used year after year to gift students a life-changing education.

 

But the impact goes even further.

Your gift to the Heritage Christian Scholarship Endowment Fund creates a ripple effect: a student receives a future, a teacher receives support, and the Kingdom is built through every life touched.

Most students do receive Ohio scholarship support, but the payment is less than tuition, and far less than public schools receive to educate students. By meeting financial need through an endowment, we unlock new possibilities:

​

  • We can invest in the teachers who invest in our students - offering fair, competitive salaries that reflect their calling and excellence.

  • We can care for our campus - updating buildings and classrooms to match the quality of the education we provide.

  • We can enrich student experiences - with new field trips, extracurriculars, technology, and other programs that form the whole child.

This isn’t just a financial strategy. It’s a vision for long-term mission strength - a way to ensure we can welcome students from every background, without compromise, for decades to come.

Life-changing education experience:

At Heritage Christian School, education is a powerful catalyst for transformation — empowering each child to break barriers, discover purpose, and step boldly into the future God has planned for them.

At Heritage Christian School, many of our students come from families who deeply desire a better education—but simply can’t afford it. Through Lift A Life, you can become the bridge between a child’s need and their achievement with a donation to our scholarship fund.

 

When you sponsor a student, you’re doing more than funding education—you’re lifting a life. You’re opening the door to academic excellence, spiritual growth, and a community where every child is known, loved, and equipped for their God-given purpose.

As a Lift A Life Sponsor, you’ll be personally connected to a student.

​

You’ll receive the student’s first name and grade, along with an update from the student or teacher each grading period. Every year, you’ll also have the special opportunity to meet your student in person—a meaningful moment to witness the impact of your generosity firsthand.

Christian values:

Rooted deeply in Biblical truth, our community ignites hearts with faith, courage, and compassion—equipping students to be lights in their world and agents of God’s love.

Academic excellence

We set the highest standards, unlocking extraordinary potential so every student can excel, lead, and impact their generation with wisdom and confidence.

Your gift doesn't just change one year. It changes everything.

​

Join us in this life-transforming work. Together, let’s lift up the next generation.

“I never thought Heritage would be so lovely and I never thought that I would have the best teacher ever. When I first came here I thought I would be shy. But I was not shy. When I came the next day I felt like this was my home. And I love this school and that will never change.”
- Chloe, Grade 4

Family environment:

Here, every child belongs to our nurturing family where love, encouragement, and responsibility shape resilient leaders who will change their communities and the world.

    One-time or recurring gifts by check, credit card, or cash are the most direct and immediate way to support the campaign. Whether mailed or online, giving is fast, easy and impactful.

  2. Pledges
    You may choose to make a larger gift over time by committing to a pledge. Pledges can be paid over 3 years, making it easier to give generously.

  3. Gifts of Stock or Securities
    Donating stocks, bonds, or mutual funds may offer significant tax benefits while making a powerful gift to the school.

  4. Gifts of Real Estate or Personal Property
    You can support the campaign through donations of land, homes, or valuable personal property. These gifts can be sold to fund the mission.

  5. Matching Gifts
    Many employers offer to match their employees’ charitable contributions. Check with your HR department to see if your gift can go twice as far.

  6. Donor-Advised Fund (DAF) Grants
    You can recommend a gift from your Donor-Advised Fund to Heritage Christian School as part of your charitable giving.

  7. IRA Charitable Distributions (QCDs)
    If you are 70½ or older, you can make a tax-free gift directly from your IRA, which may count toward your required minimum distribution (RMD).

  8. Planned or Legacy Gifts

" I give to Heritage Christian School because I’ve seen what happens when a child is given not just an education, but a future full of hope.

 

These students are growing up in a world that too often overlooks them—but at Heritage, they are known, loved, and challenged to become all that God created them to be. When I give, I know I’m investing in more than buildings or books—I’m investing in lives, in legacies, and in the changing of our community.

 

I believe in this mission. And I believe the impact will echo for generations.”
