Your Generosity Impacts Lives
The mission of Denver Christian is to “inspire and equip children of Christian parents to engage the world with Christ’s transforming power and love.” Your faithful giving has enabled Denver Christian to provide excellent Christ-centered education for over 100 years. Thank you for your faithful and generous support of Denver Christian School.
Annual Loyalty Fund
Donations raised each school year through the Loyalty Fund are released the following school year to help fund educational, operational & staffing needs. The annual Loyalty Fund kicks off each fall and wraps up in the spring. One of the ways we raise money for the Loyalty Fund is through the annual auction. Each spring our entire community gathers together for this event. Save the date for DC’s Auction on Saturday, March 18, 2023. Questions email auction@denverchristian.org.
The annual Loyalty Fund is the vehicle in which we generate needed funds to enrich the student experience at our school. Through our families’ and friends’ generosity, the money raised each year has an immediate impact on our students both in and outside the classroom. At times, we might use the loyalty funds for capital improvements.
A donation to DC is an eternal investment in our kids, our school, and our world. Your gifts allow us to expand and enrich student opportunities and experiences that would not exist on tuition alone. The Loyalty Fund impacts students’ academic and spiritual life by providing the best practices in teaching, mission trip offerings, technology upgrades, enhanced student safety & security, athletic improvements, cutting-edge programs such as Extend and offers access to our school through financial aid. Your gift makes a difference!
We encourage everyone to be a part of DC’s Loyalty Fund in the fall each year. DC’s fiscal year runs through June 30; however, your gift is welcome at any time!
We have hundreds of contributors who give generously every year! Additional giving comes from grandparents, alumni, alumni parents and friends of DC. We ask that each donor prayerfully consider the amount to give. We do not have a designated amount for giving–every gift is appreciated and matters, whatever the amount.

At Denver Christian one our “Outcomes of a Flourishing Student” is that we seek to develop in each child a “Beauty Creator.” At DC, being a “Beauty Creator” means to develop creative works that stir imaginations and touch hearts so that people can both know and feel God’s truth, goodness, and beauty. The DC Performing Arts Center (PAC) will give each student involved in the performing arts their own space to develop creative works for the glory of God.
We are thankful for the significant interest and support that has already been given to the PAC. While a major portion of the total cost of the project has been pledged or given, we need your support as a community to FINISH THE DREAM.
We are confident that working together as a whole through the broad base of support of the Denver Christian community, we will reach the goal to finish this transformational project.
