IMPACT ELCA - 2026-2027

IMPACT helps move ELCA from a great school to a World-Class school — your support is what makes ELCA exceptional. Your generosity this year will help set ELCA apart in the following areas:

Messaging

Yes. You can donate by having your Student Account Billed for the amount you would like to donate. Select how much you would like to donate to Excellence, Families Helping Families, or both.

Yes. Once you select how much you want to give to Excellence or Families Helping Families, at the bottom of the screen above where it says “Continue to Contact Info”, you will see “My company will match this donation (optional)”. Under that, you will be able to “Search for Company”. Search for your company and select it. It will tell you whether your company will match your donation or not.

The IMPACT ELCA Fund is a vital source of unrestricted income that supports key programs and initiatives across our campus. Every gift to IMPACT directly benefits our students, faculty, and staff by meeting immediate needs and advancing the mission of ELCA. From academics to the arts, athletics to innovation, IMPACT strengthens every aspect of the ELCA experience.

IMPACT helps to set us apart from other independent schools—and empowers our students to IMPACT the world!

No. The IMPACT Fund does not support new construction or renovation projects such as buildings or athletic fields.

Tuition covers a large portion of the ELCA experience—but not all of it. IMPACT bridges the shortfall between tuition and the full cost of providing an exceptional, Christ-centered education. Your support ensures that every student has access to the resources and opportunities that make ELCA unique and that our faculty/staff are equipped for now and the future.

While we recognize that you might have a passion for certain specific areas of ELCA, the giving of unrestricted gifts allows us to meet the most urgent needs. In addition, at ELCA we desire to see all students meet Jesus, love Jesus, and follow Jesus, and IMPACT ensures this intentional effort as we help families who may need financial support with tuition. You can direct your gift to one of the following priority areas:

Excellence! (Where ELCA needs it most)

Families Helping Families (Tuition support for families in need)

Yes—it absolutely does! Every gift, no matter the size, makes an IMPACT. Your participation demonstrates your commitment to our mission, and also helps strengthen ELCA’s case when seeking grants and corporate support. When we all give, the IMPACT is powerful!
