Give to the Annual Fund – and help a generation Rise!
A Randolph-Macon Academy education is an incredible investment in a student’s future, and while tuition covers the majority of expenses, it takes more than that to make all that goes into the Yellow Jacket experience possible. As a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization, the Academy has another critical source of revenue: the Annual Fund.
The Annual Fund supplements tuition to support every student and cadet in every facet of their lives at R-MA – from academic excellence to character and leadership development, athletics, financial aid, and more. The Annual Fund is the Academy’s top fundraising priority, and we encourage all members of the community to contribute by making a tax-deductible gift each year!
If you have any questions about supporting the Annual Fund, contact the Advancement Office at (540) 636-5206 or at advancement@RMA.edu.
