Giving

God’s work at Dublin Christian Academy has always been carried out through the generosity and sacrifice of His people—whether through financial gifts, faculty investing daily in our students, or parents lending their skills. We reflect on fiscal year 2026 with awe and gratitude for how He used your partnership to meet our daily needs and sustain a season of growth.

We saw this provision clearly this summer. For the first time since the pandemic, all our international students traveled home, opening a critical window to tackle the top project identified by our parent and staff capital committee: extensive repairs to our guys’ dorm, pre-K, and kindergarten building, funded by an extraordinary response to our spring fundraiser. Parents and students helped kick off the project, participating in demolition, while staff and contractors, including a master plumber in our school family, spent the summer getting this building ready for our next 60 years.

This shared commitment continues to advance our mission. Enrollment for the 2026–27 school year has surpassed 170 students—an increase over last year, despite graduating 19 seniors in the Class of 2026. This fall, we welcome over three dozen new students. God, in His grace, also met critical faculty needs by bringing us an experienced English teacher and STEM teacher, both talented and godly men who will add strength and depth to our academic program.

Your gifts in fiscal year 2026 provided $285,346 toward our $300,000 Annual Fund goal. By God’s providence, delayed grant funding helped us fill the gap to end the year in a secure position. The Annual Fund remains vital as we meet with new families seeking a DCA education and helps families who are already enrolled and struggling to keep up with tuition payments.

We received $96,009 in contributions to our Capital Fund, surpassing our $75,000 goal. Our nearly complete guys’ dorm project is the first major step toward tackling an estimated $2 million in deferred maintenance and campus improvements.

Looking ahead, several alumni are driving an effort to establish a permanent endowment fund, which our board looks forward to launching soon. Alongside this initiative, we are preparing to participate in the new federal tax credit scholarship program to expand tuition assistance.

As we begin this new school year under our theme, “Pray like a child,” we know that the Father has placed extraordinary responsibility in our hands. Fulfilling this work requires our collective commitment and sacrifice. We invite you to pray, give, and stand with us as we nurture students to love God, love others, and advance the Gospel.
