YOU CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE!

When you choose to support Orange Lutheran with a gift, you bolster the very foundation of the school. Unrestricted gifts are the most flexible type of support, affording Orange Lutheran leadership the ability to seize exciting opportunities as they arise within the current fiscal year. Designated gifts will directly support the program selected and go a long way toward helping build up those programs and the opportunities they provide our student. Endowment funds support tuition assistance and financial stability in perpetuity.

Annual Fund

The Orange Lutheran Annual Fund is vital for maintaining our high standards in academics, arts, athletics, service, and other key programs. Annual Fund contributions provide flexible, unrestricted funding that is used within the current fiscal year, ensuring immediate impact and support where it’s needed most.

Your giving is crucial because:

It helps maintain financial stability, bridging the gap between tuition revenue and the full cost of an Orange Lutheran education.
It attracts additional funding from corporations and foundations, which consider Annual Fund participation rates when deciding to support our school.
It allows Orange Lutheran to offer financial aid, enabling us to reach and support a diverse range of students.

Supporters of the Annual Fund who contribute $2,500 or more each year are considered members of Orange Lutheran's Shield Society. Shield Society members enjoy exclusive benefits such as receptions, complimentary tickets to Taste of OLu and Christmas at the Nechita, and reserved seats at Lancer Legacy Series events.

ANNUAL FUND

Lancer Legacy Endowment Fund

The Lancer Legacy Endowment Fund is essential for the long-term sustainability and growth of Orange Lutheran High School, specifically in providing financial aid to deserving students. Contributions to the endowment create a lasting legacy, with the principal amount being invested and the earnings used exclusively to support our tuition assistance program. This provides a reliable and perpetual source of income, ensuring that we can continue to offer exceptional educational opportunities to deserving students who might otherwise be unable to afford them. By supporting the Lancer Legacy Endowment Fund, you play a crucial role in making an Orange Lutheran education accessible to future generations.
