Elgin Academy

The Hilltopper Fund is our yearly fundraiser that enhances Elgin Academy in countless ways by providing support to our students, faculty, and programs. Gifts from donors like you help maximize our investment in student experiences and further the Elgin Academy mission of inspiring students to become our creative, courageous and compassionate future.

Donations to the 2021-2022 Hilltopper Fund will be accepted until the end of our fiscal year on June 30, 2022.

 

Elgin Academy is uniquely positioned to help every student realize and fulfill their potential to make a positive impact on the world. We offer a personalized education that is not one-size-fits-all. In order to achieve this, we are continuously innovating to enhance each student’s experience. A gift to the Hilltopper Fund is an investment that increases the value of an Elgin Academy education because it allows EA to continue to innovate and enhance. 

We are asking the entire Elgin Academy community to participate in supporting the Hilltopper Fund. The 2021-2022 Hilltopper Fund Goal is $300,000. Your support is needed to meet our goal.

Your donation will be accepted in any of the following ways:

Cash Gifts

Gifts to Elgin Academy can be made via cash or check (payable to Elgin Academy).

Credit Card

Elgin Academy accepts Visa, Mastercard, American Express, and Discover.

Gifts of Stock

By giving appreciated stock that you have held for more than one year, you will be eligible to receive a charitable income tax deduction for the full market value, and you can also avoid capital gains tax.

Matching Gifts

Many employers sponsor matching gift programs and will match any charitable contributions made by their employees to EA. If your company is eligible, request a matching gift form from your employer and send it completed and signed with your gift.

All gifts are tax-deductible to the extent allowed by law.
