Annual Giving
The Harker School has an annual giving fundraising session used to pay for the 30% of the school's expenses that the tuition does not pay for. This includes the performing arts, clubs, and athletic programs. Currently a $25 million annual campaign is underway, supported by parents, alumni, and corporate contributions. Also, seniors can purchase a walkway brick with a cost corresponding to the graduation year (e.g. Class of 2008 = $2008).

Famous quotes containing the words annual and/or giving:
“In soliciting donations from his flock, a preacher may promise eternal life in a celestial city whose streets are paved with gold, and that’s none of the law’s business. But if he promises an annual free stay in a luxury hotel on Earth, he’d better have the rooms available.”
—Unknown. Charlotte Observer (October 6, 1989)
“Kittering’s brain. What we will he think when he resumes life in that body? Will he thank us for giving him a new lease on life? Or will he object to finding his ego living in that human junk heap?”
—W. Scott Darling, and Erle C. Kenton. Dr. Frankenstein (Sir Cedric Hardwicke)
