Support our Community

We are proud that so many of the families whose lives have been changed by Peoria Academy give back to our school to ensure that others may have similar experiences.

These tax-deductible gifts empower us to hire the finest teachers, maintain our world class facilities and supplement tuition for deserving students.

Please review the links below to access the various ways we've made giving to Peoria Academy accessible for everyone.

For questions about giving, please contact Brandon Jordan at bjordan@peoriaacademy.org or Ken Bachelor at kbachelor@peoriaacademy.org for more details!

Stock Donation

Did you know that when you donate stock, you avoid the tax on the gain while deducting 100% of the value of the contribution? When you give stock, you may earn 2-3x the tax savings vs. donating cash. It’s a win-win for you and us. And now it’s fast, safe and easy to do.

Peoria Academy Inc. has partnered with DonateStock.com to enable our supporters to make stock donations in 10 minutes or less. Our DonateStock page https://donatestock.com/peoria-academy-inc enables you to donate stock from your brokerage directly to our account through a secure portal, making the gifting process fast, safe and easy.

So remember, charitable giving doesn’t always mean cash. By giving stock, your support will have even greater impact—without denting your pocketbook. Give smart and save more by putting stock in something that matters.
