Support Pres

it’s part of who we are.
At Presentation High School, generosity is more than a tradition—
Every day, our students benefit from the time, talents, and resources of a caring community committed to their success.

Support Our Panther Fund
The Panther Fund ensures vital resources for all students by supporting outstanding programs, attracting and retaining exceptional faculty, funding campus upgrades, and more. Every gift, no matter the size, helps us fulfill our mission and inspire future changemakers.


Helping Every Student Be Well. Do Well.
Whether you make a gift, volunteer your time, or offer your expertise, your involvement helps create a transformative experience where every student can Be Well. Do Well.
Gifts to the Panther Fund provide critical resources that fuel every aspect of student life—from tuition assistance and faculty development to wellness programs, campus improvements, and our Signature Programs: Athletics, the Arts, Leadership, Robotics, STEM, Speech & Debate, and Faith & Service.
But your impact doesn’t stop with a donation.
Volunteers bring our mission to life. Parents, alumnae, grandparents, and friends support Pres in countless ways—from hosting prospective families and serving on committees, to mentoring students, offering internships, and acting as peer ambassadors. Together, you help build a strong, connected community where everyone feels seen, supported, and welcomed.
Through this collective support, Pres fulfills its mission to equip students to become women of faith and intellect, dedicated to working with others and committed to personal growth.

Pres is a family of parents, staff, and teachers that always strives to put students first and empower young women to become strong leaders in the communities they serve. That's why I love serving as a PPA Social Chair—because we are a community of parents who care about our kids and each other.”—Dave C., P’23 & ’25, PPA Social Chair
