Provide Possibilities for Harding Students

At it most basic definition, the Annual Fund is our yearly giving foundation that bridges the gap between tuition and the actual cost of a Harding education. But what it truly means is possibility.

On any given day of the week, you’ll find students collecting their newly-fired pottery pieces from the kiln. Walk down the hall, and you’ll see eighth graders exploring storytelling through improv. Head over to the chemistry lab, and you’ll see students mixing chemicals and practicing their titration skills. Take a step outside, and you’ll find a garden full of fresh vegetables planted and tended by Harding students. These state-of-the-art programs are possible only because of the Annual Fund.

What else is possible because of the Annual Fund? The Annual Fund makes it possible for more mission-aligned families to enroll their children at Harding. Nobody receives a 100% discount on tuition; rather, we take a complex look at the income and expenses of whole families to determine what they can afford. The Annual Fund makes it possible for these families to become a part of the Harding family.

Please join us in providing the greatest possibilities for our students.
