Torah Tots Preschool and Desert Torah Academy of Las Vegas are dependent upon the generosity of people like you to support its unique academic and enrichment programs. Because quality day-school education is so costly, full tuition payments by the parent body do not cover the cost of educating our children. In truth, Jewish day-schools have many fewer supporters than universities or large charities. Because the number of individuals who give to Torah Tots and DTA is small, and our need is large, your gift makes a tangible difference!

In addition to securing funds for the school’s ongoing operational needs, Desert Torah Academy also plans for its long-term growth and overall stability. Vehicles to support this kind of institutional stability are summarized below.

Opportunities for giving include:

Annual Gifts: these gifts subsidize the school’s current-year operating expenses. Annual gifts make up the difference between what tuition covers, and the actual cost of running the school. These gifts are spent on items within the school’s operating budget, such as teacher salaries, books, supplies, etc. Torah Tots and Desert Torah Academy will need to raise ~$1,000,000 for the 2011-2012 academic year to meet its annual budget. Desert Torah Academy aims for 100% participation to the annual fund from its parent body.

How to give: We greatly appreciate your generosity, and try to make your giving experience as simple as possible. All donations are 100% tax deductible. Donations can be made by check (payable to Chabad of Southern Nevada), or credit card. We accept one time, and scheduled (i.e. monthly or quarterly) payments. We can also facilitate transfer of stock or other assets to the school. Please call  for further information.
