Dear WCA families,


Get ready for WCA's Week of Thanks and Giving. It will be a week filled with gratitude and generosity!


Each day will be filled with Thanksgiving fun, including daily spirit wear themes and special activities. In the spirit of gratitude, we are also asking parents and friends to help sustain our WCA mission by making a gift to the WCA Hawk Fund during WCA's Week of Thanks and Giving.

 

This annual campaign helps support the school's operating expenses each year, and has always played a vital role in ensuring the school's stability and sustainability.


Why We Give

Through donations to WCA's Hawk Fund, the WCA community has helped support the mission and vision of our school by funding unique projects. Over the last year, the Hawk Fund purchased two new sets of classroom iPads and helped equip our new WCA Annex. Hawk Funds donations support quarterly STEAM events that are created and developed by WCA staff to challenge the minds of our students. Educational space enhancements, activities, and events like these would not be possible without your extremely generous and heartfelt donations.

 

Again we ask for your prayerful consideration as we look toward the future of WCA, seeking to fulfill the plans and purposes God has for us. Please consider making a donation to the Hawk Fund during WCA's Week of Thanks and Giving. If your company has a matching program, please consider seeking the matching gift.
