IMPACT: Fueling Ravens Athletics Together
Get ready to support Ravens Athletics! On Wednesday, April 15, we’re launching our IMPACT Athletics fundraising campaign, running through April 30. We’re consolidating our fundraising into one impactful campaign to streamline the effort of both our athletes and donors. In partnership with Leading Edge, our students will be reaching out to friends and family via text, email, and in-person requests selling discount cards or asking for donations. You’ll also see posts about the campaign on our social media.

Activities Director Chris Nachtigall explains, “Our goal is to self-fund all student-athlete activities at Hillcrest Academy, covering everything from equipment and facility upgrades to uniforms and transportation. To achieve this, we rely on student fees, gate receipts, and fundraisers. We’re focusing our efforts on a single, powerful campaign to streamline fundraising and maximize support.”
Please be aware that during this campaign, supporters may receive texts or emails from our students or staff, similar to this:
‘Hello, this is [Remy the Raven], a student athlete at Hillcrest Academy. I am working to raise money for Ravens Athletics and would really appreciate your support! Will you help me reach my goal of raising $500 for my team?’
Included in this message will be a unique link to an individual’s fundraising webpage which will look similar to this generic all-athletic link in the button below.
On this webpage, supporters can purchase a discount card or make a donation with the option of supporting a particular student athlete’s campaign.
Our mission fuels our dedication to providing thriving environments for all students. We are incredibly thankful for the invaluable support of our friends and family, whose contributions—financial and beyond—directly empower our athletic programs. Without their partnership, we couldn’t offer the transformative opportunities our students deserve.
