Mission and money must always coexist. Whitefield Academy was established through
the generosity of its founders who sensed a calling by God to create a Christ-centered
school in the Atlanta area that would serve to educate the next generation of Christian
world leaders. Since our establishment in 1997, Whitefield Academy has been blessed
with the ability to build not only a school, but also a generous community of loyal
supporters. Each year we receive financial gifts from 100% of our trustees and over
80% of our Whitefield families, as well as generous contributions from grandparents,
alumni-families, friends, and Atlanta-area foundations. Due to this ongoing generosity
we have been enabled to continue to build our 75-acre campus, adding new facilities,
and an endowment, while annually strengthening and expanding our academic, arts
and athletic programs. Thank you for your continued support of Whitefield Academy.

Redirect your income tax payments to benefit Whitefield
Under an exciting new state law, you can redirect a portion of your Georgia income tax
payments to provide financial aid assistance to incoming Whitefield Academy students.

you have the ability to designate a portion of your state tax dollars to something you believe
