is closest to your heart. Regardless of your choice, rest assured you’ll be making a tremendous impact on our youth!

SUPPORT A PROGRAM

Whatever your passion, your gift will help fund a host of programs, allowing you to support the initiatives closest to your heart.

  • AFTER-SCHOOL ENRICHMENT

    The after-school environment is crucial to the development of today's youth. Our students enjoy staying late to participate in athletics, clubs, and tutoring.

  • ALUMNI PROGRAM

    We support our graduates through the next four years of their lives. A majority of our graduates are first generation college students and our alumni program is a big reason why our college persistence rate is more than twice the national average for this demographic of students!

  • WORK-BASED LEARNING

    Four years of career preparedness including exploration tours, career conferences, internships, resume building, interview skills, and more.

  • EVENTS

    Events are important to our school culture and provide our students with a well-rounded experience. Fundraising is crucial as our goal is to provide access to these events at a low cost, or no cost to our students, many of whom would otherwise struggle to afford attending.

  • FOSTER YOUTH SUPPORT

    Ensuring foster youth success is at the heart of Samueli Academy, and Orangewood Foundation’s mission. These students need extra academic and social-emotional support in order to thrive, and additional funding is needed to make this happen.

  • STEAM

    (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, Math) Our Project-Based Learning approach with an emphasis on STEAM is designed to revolutionize teaching by incorporating these subjects into all classes with hands-on projects that require critical thinking, creativity, and collaboration.attending.

Your support helps us change the lives of the students we serve.
