Give to DA

Ways to Give

  • Current Parent

    Words can not express the difference DA has made for my son. Being at DA paved the way for his current confidence. We saw a light return that had been dimmed.

  • Current Parent

    The teachers are fantastic. Their level of support is so different from anything we experienced before. It made a big difference for us.

  • Parent of Current Student

    Sam has found a world of support and a sense of accomplishment at DA. He openly talks about his dyslexia and his brain thinking a bit differently, and that being different is good in our world.
Denver Academy strives for excellence in educating and advocating for a diverse group of learners. Our generous community of parents, faculty, staff, grandparents, board members, alumni, and friends makes student success a reality. Thank you for your help in achieving this mission.
As an independent school, Denver Academy is a non-profit 501(c)(3) tax-exempt organization and receives no federal, state, or local financial support from taxpayers. A DA education requires supplemental funds beyond tuition to provide the exceptional level of support that helps students thrive. We rely on the time, talents, and financial contributions of every community member to help make each year a success for our students.
