Support the Academy
Annual Giving Fund
"We believe that there is a strong need for structure and discipline for boys (girls, too). We would like to see more of the academies as options to public schools where many students are falling through the cracks." - Dee Koob, Parent of Alumnus John Koob 2010
The goal of the 2011-2012 Annual Fund is to raise funds to support the cadets and the mission of Lyman Ward Military Academy.
A successful Annual Fund means LWMA can continue to provide the best in Academics, Leadership, and Athletics, structured on a foundation of moral and ethical values developing young men of integrity, competence, and excellence who are prepared for the work of life.
The Annual Fund is an ongoing giving campaign that raises much needed funds for every program of the Academy. Money raised through the Annual Fund enhances our cadets' education and experience while at Lyman Ward.
Annual participation is vital to our sustainability. Every gift no matter the size makes a difference for our cadets. By giving to the Annual Fund, you are making an investment in the education of every cadet. Your gift sends a message that you believe in the purpose and program offered at Lyman Ward Military Academy.
Our Annual Fund goal for 2011-2012 is $125,000. It is vital that we reach our goal for this fiscal year. Foundations, corporations, and major donors base their support on the level of support shown for the school by families, alumni, faculty, staff, and friends.
Lyman Ward relies on the support and involvement of the entire Lyman Ward Community. We seek 100% participation from each of our constituency groups.
A yearly gift of $1,000 or more to the Annual Fund provides leadership support to the school. Leadership level gifts are an investment in the Academy's financial security. Your gift, regardless of the amount, is appreciated and makes a significant difference in the life of a Lyman Ward cadet. Giving levels are determined by the total amount of gifts and pledge payments made during the fiscal year, July 1st - June 30th.
