Falcon Fund FAQ

HOW DOES MY CHILD BENEFIT FROM THE FALCON FUND?

Every student benefits from the Falcon Fund. The Falcon Fund provides the very things that most likely determined your choice to send your child to Ben Lippen: exemplary teachers, exceptional offerings in exploratory subjects, more personal attention with individualized student learning, an unapologetically Christian environment, and so much more. Paying tuition gives your child access to all of this. Charitable gifts are necessary to help sustain and expand it. Giving to the Falcon Fund also helps keep tuition as low as possible for all families.

WHY IS MY PARTICIPATION IMPORTANT?

Ben Lippen School is built on a culture of generosity and prayer. Tuition alone does not cover the cost of a Ben Lippen education. Our operating budget relies on tuition and gift income received primarily through the Falcon Fund. It is so important that we show support from within before we go to outside sources for contributions. Participation in the Falcon Fund demonstrates to others that we, as the closest ones to the school, philanthropically support our mission. What better way to motivate other groups to give? No gift is too small!

WHY SHOULD I GIVE WHEN I ALREADY PAY TUITION?

What drew you to Ben Lippen School for your students is most likely the impact of the Falcon Fund. Every family plays an important part of the foundation on which the school was established: prayer and generosity. Our only means to cover our expenses are through tuition and fundraising. With a goal of making quality Christian education affordable for our families, we fundraise to make that possible. Tuition partially covers the cost of a Ben Lippen education. The rest is bridged by our generous parents, grandparents, and donors. No tuition dollars are spent supporting financial aid, even though it is one of the school’s highest priorities.
