ROOTED IN FAITH. GROWING TOGETHER.Arcadia Christian Academy
THE HEART BEHIND THE LIONS CUP
More than a tournament.
A legacy worth building.
In just a few short years, Arcadia Christian Academy has grown from a vision shared by a handful of families into a thriving Christ-centered school community.
What began with faith, sacrifice and a desire to create something different for our children has become something extraordinary. ACA partners with families to nurture children academically and spiritually, rooted in Christ, family and community.
But a school that will serve families for generations takes more than tuition alone. Established schools have had decades to build a foundation of generosity. At ACA, we’re building that foundation together, right now.
“The founders helped bring ACA to life. Together, we have the opportunity to build its future.”
The Lions Cup is an invitation to help ACA continue shaping hearts, strengthening families and educating generations in Christ-centered truth. That’s a legacy worth investing in.
OUR NEED IS GREATER
2026–2027
Fundraising Goal.
$2,097,000
Our school-wide goal for this year.
STRENGTHENING OUR FOUNDATION
Building today.
Preparing for tomorrow.
As a young and growing school, ACA is making important investments in campus safety, facilities, infrastructure and the long-term sustainability of Christian education.
Our annual goal includes essential campus improvements and a 90-day operating reserve. The Lions Cup’s separate $250,000 tournament goal supports general operating expenses; it is not added again to this annual itemized total.

Campus projects total $797,000, including the $65,000 pickleball court not in the earlier $732,000 appeal. A $1.3 million 90-day operating reserve brings the annual goal to $2,097,000.
BEYOND THE IMMEDIATE NEEDS
A bigger vision for ACA.
Classroom expansion. Athletic facilities. Scholarships. A campus that can grow with our families. The Faith Foundations brochure describes an even broader vision for Christian education that lasts.
Explore the broader needs
The amounts below are planning examples from the Faith Foundations brochure’s 2025–26 campaign—not new Lions Cup targets, current funding totals or promises of restricted gifts. The brochure’s $2 million campaign is separate from this event. Project scope, estimates and priorities may evolve.
Future campus & upper-school space
Brochure planning allocation for entitlements, designs, architectural plans, deposits, legal counsel and interim junior/high-school space.
Benevolence & scholarships
Supporting ACA families and access to Christian education.
Athletics
An athletic fund alongside the broader vision for sports fields and a gymnasium.
Classroom furniture & supplies
Equipping spaces for meaningful, hands-on learning.
Classroom technology
Smart TVs and classroom technology.
Living classroom environments
Live plants throughout campus.
All-School Dance
A year-end community event for students and parents.
Annual Gala
Supporting an annual school fundraising event.
Daddy-Daughter Event
Strengthening family connections.
Mother-Son Event
Creating time for families to connect.
Children’s Business Fair
Hands-on entrepreneurship and community learning.
Additional long-term priorities include classroom and playground expansion, sports fields, a gymnasium, parking and future campus development. The brochure does not establish that these projects are funded, approved or scheduled.

THE GUYS BEHIND THE GOLF
Meet the
Big Hitty Committee.
Great events don’t happen on their own. A group of ACA dads and community supporters came together with a shared goal: create an unforgettable day of golf while making a meaningful difference for our school.
What started as a great excuse to get together on the course has become a chance to rally our community around something much bigger.
