The RPDS Fund
The bold vision and exciting progress of Riverside Presbyterian Day School are possible because of the support of a community with strong philanthropic roots dating back 78 years. Our strength has always relied on our tradition of collaboration and generosity, and we hope to continue that tradition with this year’s RPDS Fund.
Investing in the RPDS experience, today and for the future.
Tuition provides approximately 85% of the cost of an RPDS education. Philanthropy makes the remaining 15% possible, helping us invest beyond the essentials in the people, programs, and experiences that make RPDS distinctive. Together, we make more possible.
Because RPDS Fund gifts are unrestricted, they allow the School to direct resources where they can have the greatest impact. Every gift matters. Every donor strengthens our community. Every investment helps RPDS continue to thrive. Your generosity helps make the RPDS experience possible for today’s students and generations to come.
