“Education is simply the soul of a society as it passes from one generation to another." - G.K. Chesterton
There are three different ways to help advance the vision of The Oaks:
Friends of The Oaks Legacy Society Building Fund
Friends of The Oaks is our annual giving program that directly benefits the student and teacher priorities and moves The Oaks closer to its long term vision. You can partner with us in this valuable program by contributing $1,000 or more in a school year to Friends of The Oaks. This investment enables us to keep tuition at an affordable level and support the quality staff necessary to facilitate our unique education.
Approximately 90% of the school's total operating expenses are covered by tuition with the remaining 10% in expenses being covered by the generosity of our Friends of The Oaks.
Legacy Society gives supporters an opportunity to pledge future gifts to The Oaks through life insurance or a variety of estate planning tools. These are endowment type funds meant to perpetuate income for generations to come and to insure the long-term sustainability of The Oaks' vision.
Membership in The Oaks' Legacy Society will create a lasting impact in the lives of children for generations. Please contact Dale DuPree, Director of Development at The Oaks, for more information.
Building Fund
Since its inception in 1996, The Oaks has been in three different locations, out-growing each of them in turn. This has created significant challenges along the way.
In 2001, a ten acre site in the Glenrose area of Spokane’s South Hill, was pledged to The Oaks by a family with a strong desire to see the school reach its full potential and impact generations of children.
This began a season of planning and preparation to raise the capital necessary to provide a permanent home for The Oaks, culminating with the launch of our Foundation for the Future Capital Campaign in 2006.
While we continue to seek His will for a long-term Oaks' facility, God has graciously provided a wonderful, rental campus for the school as we move forward, toward our goal of a permanent home.
If you would like to make an investment to help us make this happen please contact:
