We Grow as Giants

Give to EAC

MAKE YOUR GIFT TO EAC TODAY
Every year from this year onwards, our community will come together to support projects across the school through the EAC Annual Fund. As a non-profit organization, EAC has chosen to adopt a critical practice to advance and rely on donations to meet the school’s total operating budget and deliver the future now, aiming to close the gap between innovation and time. 
 
Similar to most independent U.S. and international schools in Brazil, a giving program enhances learning and supports strategic long-term initiatives, creating opportunities for the best learning experience now and for years to come. 
 
The EAC Annual Fund will serve as the school’s primary fundraiser that will supplement the school’s operating budget and will accelerate the delivery of projects. It will nourish the school’s strong financial health.

Vision

As Giants, we will:

  • Live by our Core Values.
  • Cultivate our curiosity as learners.
  • Make a difference as global citizens.

Mission

EAC is an inclusive, multicultural community. We provide the highest quality international education within an environment of extraordinary care.

Donations through the Annual Fund will allow EAC to continuously deliver an education of excellence and provide each student extraordinary opportunities of a high quality international education. Gifts will have an immediate and direct impact on EAC’s education and will benefit students, staff, faculty, parents, alumni and the city of Campinas. 
 
Escola Americana de Campinas (EAC) is pleased to share that the 2024-2025 Annual Fund is now open. Funds raised in this year’s campaign, “Advancing Towards our 70th,” will deliver exciting projects that will impact the Preschool, Elementary and Upper School divisions. It will run from October 2024 to May 2025, although donations will always be welcomed and gratefully received at any time of the year.
 
The Annual Fund projects will benefit three priority areas: innovation, sustainable society, and well-being. Under the leadership of the Board of Trustees, the Head of School, and key EAC stakeholders, the school’s Advancement Executive Committee will curate projects according to these priority areas, and will determine which projects will be delivered according to amounts funds raised in every Annual Fund campaign.

Projects according to the priorities areas include, but are not limited to:

Innovation

Performance Pavilion audiovisual system
Preschool Restaurant retrofit
Sports Gear
Upper School Amphitheater Expansion

Sustainable Society

Why Give to the EAC Annual Fund

Faqs

How do I give?

Gifts can be made by PIX or bank transfers. Please inform your name so that we can recognize your gift accordingly.

Can I direct my gift to a specific area?
Unrestricted gifts to the school allow EAC to determine where funds are needed the most. Circle donors may designate which priority area they would like gifts to be used, which include innovation, sustainable society, and well-being. Five Star Club donors may choose from a selection of projects to designate their funds.
How does my gift make a difference?

Gifts of any amount are most welcome, although regular participation is the goal. We ask all who choose to participate to do so generously, according to their financial means. Our goal is for 100% EAC community participation, from board members, staff and parents to alumni and friends of EAC. We are grateful for all meaningful contributions. 

Does EAC accept only gifts of money?

In-kind gifts (such as classroom equipment or other gifts appropriate for school use) are also sincerely appreciated. Please contact the Advancement department at advancement@eac.com.br.

Why should I give?

A strong Annual Fund ensures EAC’s high quality education and allows EAC to continue delivering an education of excellence. Tuition covers 90% of the school’s expenses, between salary, supplies, and campus maintenance alone, leaving only 10% for investment in innovation, sustainable society and well-being. We are already a great school. We want to be greater. 

How will the Annual Fund impact our society?

As part of our definition of Global Citizenship, it is our duty as Giants to serve the community in developing a Sustainable Society. Funds will benefit our local community in several ways, such as art or English language lessons for those without the financial capabilities, aiming to increase our impact in areas related to social responsibility.

When is the best time to give?

Annual Fund contributions make an immediate impact on all educational programs and enables EAC to respond to urgent and ongoing priority areas. Gifts bequeathed within the Annual Fund “Advancing Towards our 70th” campaign (October 2024 to May 2025) will impact the same and next academic year.
