Albany Academies -- Albany Academy for Girls & The Albany Academy -- are grateful to the continued leadership and support shown by the many alumni and alumnae, parents, grandparents, faculty, staff, and friends who have helped lead The Albany Academies into a third century of greatness. Your commitment to the Academies supports the distinctive qualities that define the Academy experience. As a donor, your gift sends the message that you believe in the value of an Academies’ education. In fact, 100% of our faculty and staff made a gift to the Annual Fund again this year—sending an incredible message about their commitment to the Academies. The Annual Fund helps make the Academies a special place every day by bridging the gap between tuition and the actual cost of educating a student, covering operating costs for our outstanding facilities, and helping to pay for the unique programs, extracurricular opportunities, and gifted teachers. Every gift is significant and makes up 10% of our operating budget. Thank you for opening doors and creating opportunities for Academies’ students – our most treasured asset.
