Donations of Cash or Stock
KIPP Ascend is a publicly-funded charter school, and 85% of costs to provide a high-quality education to underserved students comes from local, state, and federal funding.  The other 15% comes through the generous support of individuals like you to cover all the ‘extras’ our students receive: an extended school day, extended school year, Saturday School, end-of-year field lessons, and the KIPP to College program.  Fundraising needs each year average $1,500 per student.

Please consider making a gift today.  All donations are tax-deductible to the fullest extent allowed by law.  To donate a gift of stock, please have your broker contact Sean Monahan and inform them of your wish to transfer stock to KIPP Ascend (Account #HDS 685 658, DTC #0226).
