Four ways in. All of them count.
A gift can meet this year’s need or provide for future development and sustainability.
The Annual Fund
Provides for the immediate needs of the current school year, including student financial aid, academic programs, campus maintenance and security, and competitive salaries for our teachers and staff.
Give this year ›Memorial Gifts
Honor the memory of those who have passed from this life with a gift that creates a lasting impact on the school they loved and supported throughout their lives.
See the funds ›Endowed Scholarships
A gift invested for the future of Archbishop Rummel High School. The principal of your gift remains invested, while the earnings provide ongoing support for our students and mission year after year.
Name a scholarship ›Planned Giving
Include Archbishop Rummel High School in your legacy through a gift in your will, trust, retirement account, real estate, or other planned gift.
Start the conversation ›The Raider Club. $1,901 in annual giving.
Every donor at $1,901 and above is in the Raider Club, which includes the following:
Two Complimentary Tickets for Every District Game
Complimentary admission for two to all home varsity district games. Playoffs are the one exception, because those gates are not the school’s to give away.

Free admission for two to every game hosted on the Rummel campus, across every sport and level. Show the card and keep walking.
Any sport, any levelTwenty Percent Off the Store
A standing discount at the Raider Pride Store, which pays for itself around the second grandchild who needs a shirt.

It arrives by email and sits in your Apple or Google wallet beside your boarding passes, so it is on you at the gate whether or not you planned to stop by.
Or back one team. For twenty five dollars.
Every Rummel program has its own people behind it, and its own way in. Baseball has two: a membership anybody can afford, and a sign on the outfield fence for a business that wants a season in front of the whole community.
Dugout Club
$25Baseball’s own club, open to parents, alumni and Raider baseball fans. It carries the meetings, the tailgates and every Dugout Club event.

Your Campus. Your Legacy.
Some of them read like a class note. Some read like a father talking to a son. All of them are still there.
Thank God Almighty, I’m a Raider. Class of 1966.

Let’s discuss the best way to make your impact on our school.
The school’s secure form takes a card or a bank draft, one time or monthly, and sends the receipt straight to your inbox. Recurring gifts can be changed or stopped by you at any time without calling anyone.
Make it payable to Archbishop Rummel High School and send it to the Department of Development, 1901 Severn Avenue, Metairie, LA 70001. If the gift is for a particular fund or in memory of someone, write that in the memo line and it will be directed and acknowledged that way.
Many employers match an employee’s gift to a school, and a good number match retirees and spouses too. Send us your company’s matching gift form, or the portal link, and the Development office completes the school’s half. A $1,000 gift becomes $2,000 and carries you into the Raider Club.
An endowed scholarship starts at $50,000 and a Full Tuition Scholarship at $250,000. The principal is invested and never spent, so the fund sends a Raider to school every year under the name you choose. This one starts with an email, not a form.
A bequest, a beneficiary designation, a charitable gift annuity, appreciated property, or a qualified charitable distribution from an IRA. Each has different tax consequences and none of them should be decided off a web page. It begins with a conversation with the Head of School or the Director of Advancement.
