What is Great Day? 

A day to celebrate all that we love about Penn Charter and to support our school. Our community will come together to tell stories of a favorite teacher, a joyful moment seeing your child thrive, celebrate the strength in our community and share a win or proud achievement from your years with PC. 

As you fondly recall Old Penn Charter, help support excellence in teaching and learning at Penn Charter In a year when everyone has brought their best gifts to school each day, we are inspired to make our best gifts to the Penn Charter Annual Fund. 

How Can I Make My Best Gift? 

Penn Charter is so near to the completion of the How Far? campaign, and the school's exciting future is so clear. Members of the PC community who want to join this impactful and historic campaign are stepping forward now to make their best gift to Penn Charter.

Your best gift might be your first ever gift to Penn Charter, or it might be stepping up as a leadership level donor. Your best gift might be over time, by setting up a recurring gift, or it might be doubled if your employer matches philanthropic contributions. No matter how you give or how much you give, make it your best gift to Penn Charter to support excellent teaching and learning every day, and ensure the school can be its best in educating students to live lives that make a difference.
