YES, I’d like to form saints for America's next 250 years!
Celebrating America’s 250th birthday by investing in the saints who will lead her next 250 years.
Help Chesterton Academy of Orlando raise $250,000 to form joyful Catholic leaders rooted in truth, goodness, beauty, and faith.
Why Donate?
In 2026, America celebrates her 250th birthday.
At Chesterton Academy of Orlando, we believe there’s no better way to honor our nation than by investing in the young people who will shape her future.
The AMERICA250 Saints Campaign is a summer fundraising initiative to raise $250,000 in support of forming joyful, courageous, faithful Catholic leaders for the next 250 years of American history.
These students are not just the future of the Church. They are the future teachers, parents, priests, entrepreneurs, missionaries, doctors, artists, and civic leaders who will help renew our culture.
We’re forming students who love truth, goodness, and beauty. Students who can defend the faith, think clearly, serve sacrificially, and lead with virtue.
This is how we celebrate America’s birthday: by investing in the next generation of saints.
Why This Campaign Matters
Chesterton Academy of Orlando exists to form saints.
Our students study the Great Books, learn through the Socratic method, engage deeply with philosophy and theology, and encounter Jesus Christ at the center of every subject.
But this education is only possible because of generous supporters.
Although Florida scholarships help many families, there remains a significant gap between tuition assistance and the true cost of educating each student. Today, that gap is roughly $5,000 per student each year.
