Heritage Christian Academy of Kalamazoo provides a high quality and affordable Christian education to families of the greater Kalamazoo area.

Mr. Beck (MIchigan History Teacher of the Year) with his award winning History Club) in Lansing, MI.

Our affordable tuition makes a Christian education within reach for more students, who can experience spiritual growth during their most formative years.

BUT, tuition only covers 83% of the cost.

You can help us close the gap.  Each year we must raise nearly $250,000.  When you give, you insure that our school can remain fiscally responsible and yet available to the maximum number of families. We don't want to be a school only for rich kids.

How can you help?  The image below demonstrates how your giving can help us with on-going costs to operating our school.

Categories of ongoing and special needs.

Heritage Christian is well-known in the Kalamazoo community for our outstanding community service.  Our Souled Out program places students directly in service-oriented ministry weekly. Our students contribute nearly 2,000 hours of direct service each school year.

Our Souled Out program places students in direct ministry service in 4 key locations in Kalamazoo.

In addition to local service, the map below indicates the many locations our current and former students have impacted the world through mission service.

The international reach of Heritage Christian Academy.

Every gift is appreciated! As our "thank you" we would like to provide 1 or more "One Free Athletic Event" pass to donors. Each pass will provide free admission to one sporting event of your choice for this school year.

Have you been hearing the buzz about the great technology education we provide? Our school had one of the first educational 3D printers, has an award winning FirstRobotics team, and is about to get 25 classroom mini-robots!  

Then we must have money to burn -right? Wrong! Actually all of those great programs happen due to designated grants and gifts. That money cannot legally be used for regular expenses.  So. . . it is fabulous that we have been recognized repeatedly as a leader in our state, but it doesn't help our bottom line.

Members of the Heritage After-school Computer Club at the capital building in Lansing with State Senator Tonya Schuitemaker. 

We want to provide an education worthy of our high calling in Christ - and we can do it in a fiscally conservative way - with your help.  

THANK YOU for your donation to this worthy cause.

Did you know that you can double your gift?  Below is a list of employers who will match your gift to HCA!  Just contact your Human Resources or Payroll Office for a ,matching form.  You fill out a few lines, give it to us and we do the rest. We have highlighted a few local companies. If you hand in the company match, the student you are supporting gets double credit, too!  (We have highlighted a few that we think are local companies).
