The Fund for Notre Dame Prep

Make a difference in the lives of NDP students through The Fund for Notre Dame Prep.

Support Transformative Education!

At NDP, we seek to inspire young women who think independently and critically, grow spiritually in their faith, lead with confidence, and discover their passions both inside and outside the classroom.

The Fund for Notre Dame Prep is essential to the sustainability of the school and supports our annual operating budget, helping us meet our most urgent needs and bridging the gap between tuition and actual costs. This provides support to every aspect of the NDP experience, allowing the school to sustain excellence in current programming, while also giving it the financial flexibility to launch new initiatives.

A gift to The Fund for Notre Dame Prep is far-reaching and supports students learning in the classroom, performing on stage, playing on the field, or attending field trips and activities. It also supports professional development for teachers, maintenance of NDP’s beautiful campus, and so much more.

Every student benefits because of the generosity of all of our donors: current and past parents, alumnae, grandparents, faculty, staff, and friends. Please consider making a gift to support our ongoing work as we strive to carry out our mission of transformative education.
