Annual Fund

Sage Ridge Annual Fund 2023-2024

Give today 

25 Years, 25 Days

The 2023-2024 academic year marks Sage Ridge School’s 25th anniversary, and to celebrate this significant milestone, we have launched a special Annual Fund campaign, “25 Years, 25 Days." Between now and Nov. 17, 2023, our fundraising target is $250,000 in 25 days!

As a non-profit, Sage Ridge depends on annual, tax-deductible contributions to enhance the student experience. Watch our video to learn more about why the Annual Fund is crucial to the success of our students. 

What is an Annual Fund? 

The Sage Ridge School Annual Fund Campaign is our yearly, primary philanthropic appeal. Sage Ridge is a 501(c)(3) charitable organization and tuition does not cover the entire cost of educating a student at Sage Ridge. The Annual Fund supports the ordinary and extraordinary, bridging the gap and enhancing all facets of the school, from academics to the arts and athletics to signature programs like Sage Sessions. When you see a Sage Ridge student building robots, studying Latin, or directing a play, opportunities like the Annual Fund allow a Scorpion's dream to become a reality.

Each family determines the amount they can contribute, and every gift makes a difference. Show your Scorpion pride and contribute to the 25 Years, 25 Days Annual Fund Campaign!

Interested in becoming a 25th Anniversary Presenting Sponsor? 

As Margaret Mead put it, “Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world; indeed, it's the only thing that ever has.” This is how Sage Ridge was founded, by a handful of families who imagined a school for any student from any family committed to learning. Twenty-five years later, this is the ethos we continue to live by as we come together to advance and prepare our students. 

Faithful to our mission, we are pleased to invite you to be a sponsor of our 25th anniversary. Sponsorship provides the top level of brand visibility, fostering a relationship, building goodwill, and a return on your investment. From the moment you agree to be a sponsor, your support implies advantages and benefits which are detailed below. 

Your sponsorship is for the students and is an investment in maximizing their endless potential. If you're interested in learning more, reach out by contacting Sage Ridge Head of School Dr. Ginger Hovenic at gingerhovenic@sageridge.org or call 775.852.6222.
