Supporting Canterbury
Thank You for Supporting Our Saints
Shared participation is at the heart of student success.
“It is important for me to give back to a place that helped form the person I am today. I have fulfilled potential I never would have discovered had I not attended Canterbury. People helped me along the way by contributing to Canterbury's Annual Fund, and I think it is my responsibility and duty to give back.”
Chad Burhance ’87

Giving is a long-standing hallmark of the Canterbury culture. Sustaining our academic excellence and long-standing traditions is rooted in a partnership with our loyal alumni, Trustees, current and past parents, grandparents, faculty, staff, and friends. We all share in the ownership of the School’s advancement as we keep moving forward while preserving the core values of our mission.
At Canterbury, the student experience has always been firmly at the center of everything we do. Dollars raised and steadfast support are the critical resources necessary to offer the opportunity of a world-class education, one that propels our students to become productive and energized members of society, ready to work with and support the people and institutions in their lives.
