About PLYMOUTH CHRISTIAN SCHOOLS FOUNDATION

The Plymouth Christian Schools Foundation is an independent 501(c)(3) nonprofit formed in December 1995 to build and steward long-term financial resources for Plymouth Christian School in Grand Rapids, Michigan. The Foundation is governed by a volunteer board of directors and focuses on planned gifts (bequests, securities, real estate, memorials and gift annuities) whose principal is preserved while investment income is distributed to the school.

In recent years the Foundation has been an active steward of an endowment that provides recurring annual support to the school. For the fiscal year ending December 2023 the Foundation reported roughly $124,000 in revenue and about $1.79 million in net assets, and continued to make annual distributions intended to reduce the school’s reliance on tuition (the school’s materials note the Foundation contributes a modest but consistent percentage of the operating budget). The Foundation also participates in donor-facing fundraising activities (for example, school auctions and planned-giving outreach) to grow its corpus and support tuition assistance and program needs.
