2021-2022 Harding Fund Impact Report

To educate and inspire young people to become thoughtful, creative, lifelong learners and self-disciplined, responsible, caring citizens.

DEAR HARDING ACADEMY COMMUNITY,

I am humbled to present the 20212022 Impact Report, which gives a glimpse into the incredible generosity of the Harding Academy community.

Through the Harding Fund, which once again exceeded all previous years with 95% parent participation, to the truly record breaking Harding Art Show selling over $1 million in artwork, our community showed up and showed out in a multitude of ways.

As we celebrated the 50th Anniversary of our school, I often found myself reflecting on all that led up to where we are now and where we are going in the future. We stand on the shoulders of those who poured their hearts and souls into building this educational community through passion, dedication, commitment and sometimes just an undying belief in

our mission: to educate and inspire young people to become thoughtful, creative, lifelong learners and selfdisciplined, responsible, caring citizens.

From this foundation of strength, we now look to the next 50 years with a firm conviction of who we are as a learning community, and an eagerness to build upon that tradition of excellence through innovative methods and state of the art facilities.

To all of our donors who continue to support Harding Academy, I offer my heartfelt gratitude.

DAVE SKEEN HEAD OF SCHOOL

Academy community members who donate $1,500 or more to the Harding Fund are invited to the fall Leadership Celebration event on Harding’s campus. This fun and festive event celebrates the culture of philanthropy at Harding and allows guests to mix and mingle while enjoying incredible food and lovely entertainment.

of more than $5,000 are invited to the Head of School Donor Dinner, which includes an update from the Head of School on the state of the school. This intimate evening provides a wonderful way to get together and celebrate Harding Academy and its successes.

CELEBRATING 50 YEARS

Harding Academy’s 50th Anniversary Celebration was one for the books. Over 600 members of the Harding Academy community gathered at Nissan Stadium for this multi-generational event to celebrate this exciting milestone. Entertainment was provided by award-winning singer-songwriters Shane McAnally, Ross Copperman, and Josh Osborne, joined by Karen Fairchild and followed by a rousing performance from Ronnie Dunn and company. The night was capped off by a live auction with fantastic lots including Super Bowl tickets, several rare whiskeys and a Las Vegas getaway with tickets to see Keith Urban. A very special thanks to our Party Chairs, Amanda Hardin and Louise Alexander, our Songwriters Chairs, Coady Rapp and Elisa Vazzana, and our Auction Chairs, Rachel Pritchett, Hayden Fulmer, and Jocelyn Chambers.

In an exciting celebration of truly incredible talents, The Harding Art Show returned to campus in May 2022 for a record breaking in-person and online show. CoChairs, Shaila Bannock and Allison Freeman '96, along with their team of volunteers, created a show of carefully cultivated artists from a multitude of mediums who engaged guests from across the country selling over $1 million in art over the 3-day event. The energy on campus was genuinely palpable, reverberating throughout the festivities beginning with an exquisite dinner by Kristen Winston Catering and a tequilla tasting by Best Brands on Thursday night. This continued all the way through the last face being painted on Saturday during Family Day! We are thankful for volunteers and patrons alike for your commitment to Harding and the art community in Nashville. A special thank you to 2022 Featured Artist, Lynn Sanders, for bringing her bold and vivacious works to campus!
