• Annual Gifts

  The Archmere Fund helps bridge the gap between tuition revenue and the cost of operating the school in the tradition of excellence we expect. Gifts to the Archmere Fund help to make every part of the Archmere experience possible, for 100% of our students.

  Thanks to the continuing generosity of many Archmere families, alumni, faculty and committed friends, Archmere is able to provide a premier educational experience that nurtures the whole student. Support of the Archmere Fund enhances our academic program with modern technology, state-of-the-art facilities, a variety of extra-curricular activities, an atmosphere of faith and values, and a beautiful college-like campus.

• Endowment Gifts

  Endowments are funds that are allowed to mature over time, ensuring the long-term stability and future of an institution. Giving to the endowment helps Archmere plan its financial future, which ultimately shapes the educational program we deliver and the environment in which we offer it. 

  When giving to Archmere, you can make a gift to the overall endowment fund, you can designate your gift to one of our many scholarship funds, or you can also establish a new scholarship fund. To give to the endowment or to a scholarship fund, use the form on this page. If you are designating the gift, be sure to include the name of the scholarship fund in the box below the payment details.

• Matching Gifts

  Many companies match employees’ and retirees’ contributions. Contact your company’s Human Resources Office for easy instructions on how to double, sometimes even triple, your gift to Archmere. 
  
  How Matching Gift Programs Work? (Procedures can vary from company to company.) 
  

  • Obtain a matching gift form from your employer (usually from the Human Resources Office).
  • Complete the form and mail it with your gift to Archmere.
  • Archmere’s Office of Institutional Advancement will certify the gift has been received and return the form to your employer.
  • Your company will then send a matching gift to Archmere and double the size of your gift!

• Gifts of Appreciated Securities

  Gifts of Appreciated Securities (stocks, bonds or mutual funds) are an easy and tax beneficial way to make charitable contributions. Capital gains taxes are completely avoided and you receive an income tax deduction for the full market value of the security on the date of the transfer to Archmere.
