READY...SET...GIVE! Orinda Academy's Night of FUN-draising
Join us for a night of fun, connection, and impact at Orinda Academy’s 2026 Spring Fundraiser!
RSVP here: https://givebutter.com/c/OAFundraiser26
Enjoy great food, drinks, and games alongside fellow OA families, all while supporting the programs that make our school so special.
Your generosity helps power the experiences that set OA apart. Proceeds will go toward a new fleet of student vans, making daily transportation and our Educational Adventures possible—from local excursions around the Bay Area to unforgettable global trips (like our students currently exploring photography in Patagonia!).
Donations also help us expand classes based on student interests, grow athletics, provide dedicated counseling support, and increase financial aid, ensuring more students have access to an environment where they can truly thrive.
Come ready to play, connect, and make a difference. We can’t wait to celebrate with you as we set OA up for the future!
The evening will run from 6-9pm at Orinda Academy's campus. We would be honored to have you.
This event is 21+ only.
