Dear Parents,
“… For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Savior, who is Christ the Lord. And this will be a sign for you: you will find a baby wrapped in swaddling cloths and lying in a manger.” And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God and saying, “Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace among those with whom he is pleased!” Luke 2:11-1

RE: Faculty Salary Endowment
Our Life Christian Foundation has a goal of increasing faculty salaries for LCA teachers, as well as reducing the cost of Christian education for families.
How? By raising funds to build a strong faculty salary endowment, which will provide dollars every year to support increased compensation for teachers.
We have an exciting $150,000 matching gift from the Chris and Shawn Schuler Foundation, which we need to match with other gifts by August 31, 2023. Would you consider a gift now towards meeting this matching gift? It is really a 2 for 1 opportunity—every dollar you give actually counts for two dollars that is added to the endowment. You can “give now” at lifechristianfoundation.com or by mailing your check to
Life Christian Foundation 1717 South Union Tacoma, WA 98405
If you any questions, please email Ross Hjelseth.Thanks for your consideration of a gift at this time and prior to August 31, 2023.
Ross Hjelseth Executive Director
Life Christian Foundation

As we wrap up 2022, our end of year giving focus will support tuition assistance. 48% of our families receive tuition assistance and this year we have already raised $450,000 of our $1.3 million goal.
