Support AJA
Why Give?
At Austin Jewish Academy, we believe in the power of tzedakah to strengthen our community and ensure a vibrant Jewish education in our city for generations to come. On that note, we thank you in advance for helping us lay a stronger foundation of tzedakah towards this special and extraordinary institution. We must cultivate sustainable giving habits, invest in stronger donation systems, and establish meaningful milestones.
Like at all 501(c)3 independent schools, tuition and fees alone do not cover the full-cost of providing a world-class education to every AJA student.
The successful fulfillment of AJA’s mission relies upon the expertise, passion, philanthropic support and partnership of AJA’s families, volunteers, faculty and community members.
Please join us in our efforts to inspire AJA students to transform the world by making a generous gift.
To give stock or securities or to discuss other giving opportunities, please contact our Advancement Office at (512) 735-8368.
Annual Fund
The Annual Fund is the most important fundraising initiative at AJA. Every year, AJA asks all community members to support the School by making a tax-deductible contribution. Gifts range in size—and every gift matters! We strive for 100% parent participation. High participation rates are often viewed by major donors and corporations/foundations as a sign of institutional strength and can impact the size of their giving.
We hope you will consider making your own gift at one of the Giving Levels below to the 2024-25 Annual Fund to support our efforts.
