Support NDP
A classic Catholic education is special. Our students are taught to be loving servant leaders with exceptional minds. We help instill in them the ability to think critically and solve problems creatively. We want Notre Dame Preparatory to be accessible to anyone who wants a Catholic, innovative education. Therefore, tuition does not fully cover the cost of educating each student. CLOSING THE GAP
Our advancement team works hard to raise the money necessary to close the gap between tuition and the actual cost of teaching each NDP student. We host fundraisers and FUN-raisers to build relationships and generate revenue streams. This helps take our students’ experience from good to great. NDP FUND (ANNUAL FUND)
NDP Fund is our top fundraising priority and runs annually from July 1 - June 30. Dollars raised through the NDP Fund campaign allow us to tackle the immediate needs of our school; from technology and facilities to athletic equipment and tuition assistance. All our events and advertising opportunities benefit NDP Fund ndpsaints.org/NDPfund.
ADVERTISE WITH NDP
We offer business owners plenty of opportunities to advertise to loyal constituents through NDP. View opportunities for advertising at ndpsaints.org/media-kit.

SCRIP TUITION REBATE PROGRAM
Scrip is the fundraiser that pays you back. It is simply done by making your everyday purchases through Scrip’s various tools. Of every dollar spent, 50 percent goes to your student and the other half goes to NDP’s Tuition Assistance Fund.

THANKS FOR GIVING – FACULTY AND STAFF CHRISTMAS FUND
Many years ago, our Advisory School Board started the Faculty and Staff Christmas Fund. This helps make holiday gift giving to faculty and staff easier for parents and is very appreciated by NDP employees. This NDP tradition is organized by the parent-led Advisory School Board and begins Nov. 1.
Fundraising continues for our newest addition to campus. Opened in the fall of 2021, the Performing Arts Center (PAC) is part of the Our Future in Focus: Vision 2020 campaign. We continue to work on strengthening all facets of the NDP experience and commit significant resources to advance our academic goals and campus facilities, allowing students to set their sights on exploring passions and interests to their fullest potential through expanded experiential learning opportunities. ndpsaints.org/support-ndp/ways-to-give/saint-of-the-arts ANNUAL NDP GOLF TOURNAMENT
Scottsdale in December is the perfect time for a round of golf at the gorgeous Troon North Golf Course. Our annual “best-ball” scramble format golf tournament is designed for golfers of all abilities. There are fun games, a putting contest and a raffle for added excitement. Organize a foursome or come as a single but join us for a wonderful day on the links. For more information, please visit ndpsaints.org/golf.
MARDI GRAS GIVING DAY
Mardi Gras or Fat Tuesday is a special day at NDP. Our NDP Live! club hosts a livestream-a-thon to raise as much money in one day as possible through their 8-hour broadcast. This money goes directly into the NDP Fund.
AUCTION FASHION SHOW
The Auction Fashion Show is our largest fundraiser of the year and gives our entire community a night of good times and glamour while supporting our mission. After a fast-paced auction and dinner, we partner with Dillard’s at Fashion Square to put on a spring fashion show, featuring our seniors as the models! It is a wonderful tradition at NDP with fun for parents from all grade levels. Go to ndpsaints.org/afs for more information.
Redirect your tax dollars to help make an NDP education affordable for all at no cost to you! CTC - The corporate tax credit can direct 100% of your company’s tax liability to Notre Dame Prep, provided the company files an AZ 120, 120A or 120S form. We hope you will choose CEA and designate Notre Dame Prep. In turn, CEA will use the tax dollars to distribute scholarships to our students with a demonstrated need. The deadline to file is June 30.
ARIZONA PRIVATE SCHOOL TAX CREDIT
ITC - The individual tax credit, for those filing single or joint returns, is a dollar for dollar match of your tax liability (amount restrictions apply). Simply go to the Catholic Education Arizona (ceaz.org) website or student tuition organization of your choice (example, Arizona Tuition Connection www.arizonatuitionconnection.com) to fill out the forms and a portion of your tax dollars will be directed to NDP. Remember to designate Notre Dame Prep as the school to which you want your tax dollars directed. The deadline to file is April 15. Contact Cesar Lopez at clopez@ndpsaints.org with questions.
