Inside, you will find all of the information you need to discover the ways to get involved at All Saints! In order to be successful, All Saints strives each day to be a place where parents, grandparents, alumni, faculty, and administrators work together and pool resources to make our school stronger. I invite you to join us in building a school where students are able and encouraged to Discover Their All!
In the following pages, you will see how you can become a partner in your child’s success by volunteering in the classroom, participating in our many activities and events, or charitably supporting The All Saints Fund or our wonderful parent organizations.
It is a blessing to have such involved and enthusiastic partners working with us toward our goal to provide a life-changing and enriching experience for students at All Saints. Thank you for your hard work and commitment to our school.

What is The All Saints Fund?The All Saints Fund is our annual giving campaign that provides unrestricted income for programs that are critical to the All Saints experience such as direct support for academic programs, financial aid, and materials and equipment for fine arts and athletic programs. All families are asked to support The All Saints Fund, and gifts are tax-deductible. Why is it important?The All Saints Fund strengthens and sustains our operating budget as the cost of tuition does not fully fund our school. Gifts to The All Saints Fund enable our school to continue to provide the very best educational experience. Many aspects of our campus and programming are enhanced through your gifts to The All Saints Fund.

What is supported?• Academics• Fine Arts• Athletics• Spiritual Growth• Where the School Needs it Most
How much should you give?Most importantly, all gifts, no matter the size, are valued and deeply appreciated. We ask our families to invest in their students and make All Saints one of their highest philanthropic priorities.
Who gives?Everyone! We hope parents, grandparents, alumni, past parents, faculty and staff, administrators; in short, everyone who is a part of the All Saints community, will give to The All Saints Fund.
Why is participating important?The school’s strength is dependent upon the participation of all members of the school family. Not only does participation enhance the spirit of our special community, but it also encourages others to join in supporting the school. The participation rate from those we serve is an indicator to foundations, corporations,donors, and prospective families that the school is strong, valued, and worthy of support.

Matching Gifts
A matching gift is a contribution to All Saints by your employer. If your organization has a matching gift program, then it will match, or possibly exceed, your annual gift to All Saints. This is a unique way for donors to increase the impact of their personal gift.
Planned Giving
A planned gift is a donation you make today that provides significant benefits to you and future support to our vision sometimes much more than you might otherwise have thought possible. Bequest intentions and other gift planning opportunities such as gifts in your will or living trusts, charitable gift annuities, and outright gifts of cash can offer substantial tax benefits to you and your family.
Gifts of Securities
Donors can make gifts to All Saints through securities and stock transfers. Gifts of appreciated securities offer tax advantages to the donor and are straightforward to arrange. Credit is given, and a tax deduction is allowable for the value of the average of the high and low prices of the stock on the day of the transfer.

Get Involved in the All Saints Parent Association
All parents and guardians are members of the Parent Association (PA). The PA supports and promotes the mission of All Saints by enhancing many of the school’s outstanding programs. It also exists to foster communication between the parents, teachers, and administration so that students ultimately benefit from our community’s support.
The PA coordinates with division heads to plan and execute a variety of school-wide and division specific events and activities such as the Back-to-School fair where booths from various clubs, programs, and organizations come together for families’ convenience prior to the start of the school year. The PA also hosts the annual Spring Gala fundraiser which provides many volunteer opportunities and is a wonderful way to get to know other All Saints parents.

Ways to Volunteer with the PA
Grade Level Representative / Homeroom Mom / Assistant Homeroom Mom: These parents assist with class celebrations, recruit volunteers for projects or events, foster teacher / parent communication, and arrange transportation for class field trips.
Back-to-School Fair: Many hands make light work as we transform Davis Gym into a big welcome wagon filled withinformation to get our students off to a great start.
Trunk or Treat: Host the pumpkin decorating contest and provide a safe place for the children to come in costume and collect treats from different cars (trunks) or booths set up by parents, teachers, and student organizations. Then, head over to Mewbourne Field to walk around the track in support of the fighting Trojan football team.
Spring Gala: Help is needed in all facets of this fundraiser from the planning phase to the evening of the event. Most importantly, everyone is encouraged to come out and enjoy this fun event.
Field Day / Conundrum: Plan and assist with these end of the year activities for the Lower, Intermediate, and Middle School divisions.
Swap Shop: Assistance is always appreciated in the organizing and staffing of the uniform Swap Shop. This program provides a great service to our families.
Faculty / Staff Appreciation: Interact with our hardworking teachers and staff by assisting in the organization and preparation of these special breakfasts and luncheons.
Christmas Decorating (and un-decorating): The Christmas tree and garland goes up the Monday after Thanksgiving break. Please consider helping our school get into the Christmas spirit by decorating our campus.
General Volunteer: This is a great way for busy moms and dads to get involved. Some of these commitments take as little as 30 minutes. Let your division PA representative know if you would like to be included on this special “on call” list.

The All Saints Athletic Booster Club plays a vital role in promoting excellence in our Trojan athletic program by funding the “extras” of a quality program and providing a network of volunteer support. It raises money for All Saints athletics through concession sales, merchandise sales from The Armory, and by selling athletic season passes. Everything raised directly benefits the physical education and athletic programs for all 3K through 12th grade students.
Over the past five years, the Athletic Booster Club has donated over $185,000 to enhance all of the programs that students enjoy. It has purchased baseball backstop and netting, weight room and strength and conditioning equipment, the Lower School playscape, basketball and volley-ball NOAH training system, and an athletic trailer. The support of athletic programs goes way beyond raising money. The Athletic Booster Club provides the behind-the-scenes support for coaches, students, and programs.
Below are just a few ways to volunteer to support Trojan athletics
