Endowment

With gifts to the endowment, Palm Beach Day Academy can support the important work we do today, while strengthening our legacy for tomorrow.

What Is the Endowment?

  • Charitable funds that offer a source of stability for institutions. 

  • Critical to the financial health of schools.

  • Essential to support institutions as they work to offer high-quality, affordable, accessible education.

  • Not a single fund, but a compilation of funds given by many donors over time, for specific purposes that cannot always be changed after the gift is made.
