Become a Holiday Potpourri Patron
As the school has continued to grow and thrive over the last 59 years, our annual fundraiser, Holiday Potpourri, has provided critical support in enhancing our children's education for 51 years.
This event and season of giving generates more than $250,000 annually for educational and extracurricular improvements to our school.
Your gift to Holiday Potpourri is vital to the mission of First Presbyterian Day School. The money received through Holiday Potpourri supports the school’s evergreen priorities of broadening the impact of Christian education by maintaining accessible tuition and recruiting and retaining excellent teachers.
Your gift also enhances the student experience in numerous ways seen and unseen: from improving technology available in our classrooms to purchasing new equipment for our boys and girls basketball teams.
Most importantly, your gift is your opportunity to partner with FPDS in our kingdom-work of making disciples of Jesus Christ and growing our children from acorns of faith into “oaks of righteousness.” (Isaiah 61:3)
