Ways to Give and Support
ANNUAL FUND
The primary purpose of the Annual Fund is to support the school’s operating budget for programs like tuition assistance, spiritual emphasis, athletics, music, yearbook, and other extra-curricular activities.
What is Tuition Assistance? At WMC tuition does not cover the actual cost of educating our students. We strive to keep tuition affordable, while ensuring that a quality, Christ-centered education is available to families from a wide economic cross-section. As a result of this approach, there is a gap between cost and revenues from tuition. The Annual Fund is used to fill our operational financial obligations. WMC relies on the generosity of our alumni, parents, grandparents, staff, and our entire constituency for financial gifts each year.

ENDOWMENT FUND
A gift to WMC’s endowment is a gift toward long term financial stability. Gifts to the endowment are gifts that keep on giving. Gifts given to the endowment fund are invested and only a percentage of the earnings are distributed to the school. If WMC is able to fully fund the endowment, the disbursement will make up the annual shortfalls in operations and provide long term financial security. Every gift matters, regardless of size. Each dollar added to the Endowment adds to the academic and spiritual growth of our students. Your financial gift today will provide a positive and lasting Christian influence, for today’s students and for generations to come.
