Support AJC

Thank you for taking the time to consider supporting the students, staff, and graduates of Anna Julia Cooper School.

AJC provides full-tuition scholarships to all of our students. Because families do not pay tuition we rely solely on the financial support of individuals, foundations, churches, and corporations to fund our annual operating budget.

Scholarships are valued at $21,500 and cover all costs associated with a well-rounded education, the kind all children deserve:

  • Salaries for top-notch, compassionate teachers and staff
  • Classroom supplies and challenging curriculum
  • Athletics and extracurricular activities such as music, art, and robotics
  • Summer school and summer camps
  • Transportation and building costs
  • After-school programs and field trips
  • Wrap around services like speech therapy, mental health support, tutoring, and academic intervention

In addition, ongoing support into high school, college, and adulthood is provided through our Graduate Support Program, including financial support for many who go on to attend private high schools.

MANY WAYS TO SUPPORT AJC

No matter the size or type, all gifts are greatly appreciated and contribute directly to the vitality and sustainability of our school. Keeping the AJC community in your prayers and spreading the word about us are great ways to support us too.

Every gift of time, talent, or money is important to us. Thank you to the greater Richmond community whose remarkable support has fueled our mission and growth since our founding in 2009!
