Why this fund exists
Classical Christian education at Trinitas is a covenantal act of discipleship. Our vision is to graduate classically educated ladies and gentlemen who possess abiding faith and joyfully submit their lives to the Lord Jesus Christ. That vision is only possible if Trinitas remains free to order all subjects according to the Word of God rather than the shifting demands of culture or the state.
The Academic and Religious Freedom Fund is inseparable from that mission. It is the permanent financial bulwark that allows Trinitas to say no when outside pressure would require us to surrender biblical convictions or our classical curriculum. Your partnership in growing the endowment helps us accept scholarship support today and ensures that generations yet unborn will be able to sing the Psalms in Morning Meeting, study Euclid in geometry, and participate in the Great Conversation through the Great Books.
