Brophy hosts four fundraising events each year. These events also provide important ways to support Brophy. Proceeds are typically directed to the area of most need for that academic year. Learn more at the links below.
Please contact Ms. Heather Chapman in the Advancement Office by email or phone (602-264-5291, ext. 6227) if you have any questions about making a pledge or setting up a recurring gift.
There are a number of ways to incorporate a gift to Brophy in your tax planning. For more information, contact Ms. Stacy Thomas at sthomas@brophyprep.org, or at 602-264-5292, ext. 6365.
What's the difference between donating to Brophy and contributing to the Brophy Community Foundation tax credit program? (Each is a separate 501(c)3 Arizona nonprofit.)
Supporting Brophy Community Foundation via a Tax Credit
As a state-certified student tuition organization (STO), Brophy Community Foundation (BCF) asks community members and friends, as well as corporations, to designate their Arizona state tax liability as a tax credit to BCF to fund need-verified financial aid supporting 38 mission-aligned private schools across the state. Once participants (individuals and corporations) contribute to BCF the amount allowed by Arizona law, they can then subtract that from their Arizona state tax liability. It’s a wonderful way to support need-based tuition assistance for students without ultimately costing the participant anything out of pocket.
Supporting Brophy College Preparatory
As a private nonprofit school that receives no Diocesan funding, Brophy College Preparatory conducts giving campaigns — such as the class campaigns ("Men of") and Annual Fund — as well as fundraising events. When you make a donation or pledge that supports a campaign or event, that donation is tax-deductible as allowed by law, but it is not linked to or affiliated with the Arizona tax credit program which regulates the Brophy Community Foundation; i.e., tax credit contributions to BCF cannot be used to support a Brophy fundraising event or fulfill a commitment to a giving campaign.
The efforts of both nonprofit organizations work together to provide need-based tuition assistance.
