What is Pillars of Support?

Pillars of Support is a crucial part of the continued operation of Dunnville Christian School. Since it’s conception in 2008, our faithful supporting community has given over $4.4 million dollars to Pillars of Support campaigns! This incredible commitment to providing Christian education to our young children in Dunnville has made a far-reaching and eternal impact. God has blessed Dunnville Christian School richly through these generous funds over the years and we are very grateful.

2025-26 Campaign

The goal of this year’s campaign is $420,000. This amount is derived directly from the budget based on our needs for this school year. Tuition is currently at $16,433 per family and this amount only covers the wages for our Teachers and Educational Assistants. The rest of our budget is covered by Pillars, other fundraising efforts at DCS (including the Bazaar, Booster Club and Golf Tournament) and other sources of income, such as providing bussing to Smithville Christian High School.
