2026 Spring Appeal

Double Your Impact: Bring Christ-Centered Education to 700+ Students

Christ is risen—alleluia! Now is a powerful moment to share that Easter joy with the next generation through Christ-centered education.

Because of generous friends like you, Lutheran schools across our region are helping students learn about the birth, death, and resurrection of Jesus in the same place they study math, science, and reading. What a blessing for students, families, and our faith communities.

In May, LESA’s Scholarship Committee will award financial aid for the 2026–2027 school year, opening the door for more than 700 students to attend our Lutheran schools. Your partnership helps develop future leaders through an education that unites academic excellence with spiritual growth.

Right now, your gift can go even further.

A generous donor has pledged to match every gift dollar-for-dollar up to $100,000 through June 30, our fiscal year-end. Thanks to our dinner auction, $62,000 has already been matched, leaving $38,000 in matching funds still available.

Even better, recurring gifts (monthly, quarterly, or biannually) will be matched 3:1—a powerful way to maximize the impact of your generosity.

  • $100 becomes $200
  • $500 becomes $1,000
  • $5,000 becomes $10,000

Whether you’re celebrating a graduate, honoring a LESA legacy, or investing in tomorrow’s missionaries, now is the perfect time to give.

Every matched dollar brings a student one step closer to a Christ-centered education and a future filled with the love and hope found in our Lutheran schools.

Make your gift before June 30 and help provide every child in the St. Louis region access to excellent, innovative, transformative Lutheran education.
