About COVENANT CHRISTIAN HIGH SCHOOL FOUNDATION

Covenant Christian High School Foundation is the dedicated development arm that raises, invests, and distributes funds to support Covenant Christian High School in the Grand Rapids area. The foundation exists to generate earnings that enhance the school’s programs and to provide financial support that reduces costs for families aligned with the school’s Protestant Reformed mission. ([covenantchristianhs.org](https://www.covenantchristianhs.org/development/foundation.php?utm_source=openai))

The foundation operates as a tax-exempt 501(c)(3) entity (established in 1999) and functions as a subordinate/support organization to the school/society that founded CCHS, maintaining an investment pool and issuing annual grants and receipts back to the school. In recent filings and public financial summaries the foundation shows multi-year growth in assets and provides regular annual distributions to support school operations and scholarship-related activity. ([projects.propublica.org](https://projects.propublica.org/nonprofits/organizations/383484236?utm_source=openai))

Fundraising activity is carried out through recurring events (notably the school’s “Taste of Covenant” dinner and an annual golf outing), planned-giving partnerships, and capital-campaign support; these efforts feed the foundation’s invested assets that produce the income used for grants and student-support disbursements. School publications for 2023–2025 document continued foundation receipts and capital campaign activity as part of the school’s development efforts.

Regular successful fundraisers

The foundation operates recurring donor events—such as the Taste of Covenant dinner and a golf outing—that have historically generated tens of thousands of dollars annually to support foundation distributions to the school.

Established planned-giving partnerships

The foundation partners with outside planned-giving advisors (for example the Barnabas Foundation as listed on the school’s development page) to help donors create estate and legacy gifts that bolster the foundation’s long-term endowment.
