Giving at Des Moines Christian School

Des Moines Christian School is a generous community of believers united by a shared mission— to equip minds and nurture hearts to impact the world for Christ. For more than 75 years, God has blessed DMC through the faithful support of alumni, parents, grandparents, faculty, staff, businesses and friends who believe in our mission.

Every gift, combined with the generosity of hundreds of others, helps us strengthen academic and co-curricular programs and enhance the student experience. Your generosity:

Invests in the tools and opportunities that make learning dynamic and engaging—beyond textbooks.
Enables us to elevate spiritual formation, character development, and leadership, preparing students to lead with integrity.
Builds a legacy of faith-rooted excellence that benefits current students and those who follow.

Through recurring monthly gifts, annual giving, planned gifts, special events, and partnerships, you have the opportunity to make a lasting difference in the lives of students today and those who will follow. Your support ensures DMC continues to be a place where students are challenged academically, encouraged spiritually, and prepared to serve faithfully wherever God leads them.

Preparing for the Future of Christian Education

In May of 2024 DMC purchased 104 acres of farmland approximately one mile north of the school’s current location. A generous donor made a $7M gift for the full purchase of the land. The DMC high school will move to this second campus; the timeline is dependent on fundraising. The DMC Early Education Center is also relocating to the second campus and could open as early as the fall 2026.

Prayerful work and planning by our Board of Trustees and the Board’s Building and Grounds Committee has led to the creation of a master site plan that makes use of both indoor and not only the development of a high school building, but a campus that facilitates the development of the whole child. We believe there is an opportunity to continue to develop academic, athletics, fine arts, and worship spaces that will continue to allow us to deliver our mission with even deeper excellence in the coming years. The plan is expected to be developed in phases and is intended to be adaptable to future needs. The timing and scope of construction is dependent on fundraising.

DMC is purposeful about seeking the Lord and inviting Him into this process. We have a great start on a God-sized initiative and are excited to grow access to Christian education in our community.
