Why Give?

  • Because it is the only way for the school to exist and improve since the school does not receive government. The present existence and the quality of its future existence depend on donations.
  • Because of the sacrificial giving of people in the past who laid the foundation for today's excellence by organizing the school, purchasing land, constructing buildings, and supporting operations. It is now our turn.
  • Because of the future of the children who will be encouraged to grow as Jesus did in wisdom and stature and in favor with God and man.
  • Because of the impact on the world that OCS students will exert.
  • Because this is God's school and the Bible says "It is more blessed to give than to receive."
