The BIG Pickup!

Here we go! Let’s unlock $275,000 for financial aid!
Alum Matching Fund

Thacher Alums - your gift of any amount will be matched $500 for financial aid. If 500 alums give, $250,000 will be unlocked! This is the equivalent of five financial aid awards for students. Please show your support and encourage your classmates to do the same!
Current Parent Challenge

Here we go Thacher parents! Let’s get our first challenge of $25,000 unlocked when we hit 25 gifts.

Nice job, Thacher parents! We accomplished our first challenge of 25 gifts and $25,000 unlocked. Next up, 50 gifts and $50,000 unlocked!

Great job! Keep it up, Thacher parents. Let’s unlock $75,000 for financial aid!

Let’s go! We only have 25 more gifts to go to get to 100!
When 100 gifts are made, $100,000 is unlocked - the equivalent of a full financial aid award plus a supplemental aid award. You can do it!
