FORMATION & GENEROSITY

Feed the Need

Our Annual Community Fundraiser

Feed the Need is Imago Dei Academy’s annual fundraiser and a meaningful expression of our commitment to character formation and discipleship. Rather than hosting multiple fundraising efforts throughout the year, we focus our energy on one shared initiative that reflects our values, strengthens community, and invites students to participate in purposeful service.

Formation Through Service

At Imago Dei Academy, discipleship is not limited to the classroom, it shapes how students learn, serve, and engage the world around them. Feed the Need provides a tangible way for students to practice generosity, stewardship, and responsibility while responding to real needs beyond themselves.

Through hands-on participation, students learn that service is not an abstract idea, but a lived expression of faith, compassion, and care for others.

Impact Rooted in Purpose

Through Feed the Need, Imago Dei Academy students, families, and supporters have packed more than 100,000 meals, serving individuals and families both locally and globally. This impact reflects more than numerical success; it represents a shared commitment to loving our neighbors in practical and meaningful ways.

Students are actively involved in the process, gaining a deeper understanding of how collective effort and faithful stewardship can meet real needs and create lasting impact.

Impact That Extends Beyond Our School

Feed the Need allows Imago Dei Academy to raise meaningful support for the school while simultaneously serving others. By centering the fundraiser around hands-on service, our community participates in an effort that addresses real needs locally and globally, rather than focusing solely on ourselves.

This approach enables the school to raise significant funds in a way that is missionally aligned, outward-facing, and formative for students. The result is a fundraiser that strengthens the sustainability of Imago Dei Academy while also reinforcing the call to generosity, stewardship, and care for others.

Feed the Need reflects our belief that it is possible—and necessary—to support the mission of the school while also directing time, energy, and resources toward serving the broader community.

Why One Fundraiser Matters

By choosing to focus on a single, intentional fundraiser, Imago Dei Academy reinforces clarity, unity, and purpose within our community. This approach allows us to:


  • Respect families’ time and financial commitments

  • Create a shared goal that unites students, families, and supporters

  • Model thoughtful stewardship and generosity

  • Connect fundraising directly to service and discipleship

Feed the Need reflects our belief that generosity is best cultivated through participation, clarity, and shared mission.

Sustaining Our Mission

Funds raised through Feed the Need support the ongoing work of Imago Dei Academy by helping bridge the gap between tuition and the full cost of providing a Christ-centered, classical education. This ensures that our school can continue to serve students well, steward resources wisely, and remain faithful to our mission of forming students in truth, character, and wisdom.
Formation shapes hearts. Service puts faith into action.
