PARTNER WITH US
Every great school is built by a community.
Ark Discovery Institute is launching with one of the most ambitious visions in eastern North Carolina: K-12 Christ-centered education through three pathways, anchored by hands-on discovery at The Father’s Refuge. We can’t do it alone, and we don’t want to.
Whether you give, pray, volunteer, or simply share our story, you are partnering in Kingdom work.
WHY PARTNER NOW
This is the inaugural year.
Founding ADI is the work of a generation. The decisions we make in 2026, the families we welcome first, the partners who stand with us at the beginning – all of this shapes what ADI becomes for decades to come.
FIVE WAYS TO PARTNER
1. GIVE FINANCIALLY
Your gift directly supports ADI’s launch, programs, and scholarship pathways. Every dollar invested in ADI is an investment in the next generation.
2. GIVE IN-KIND
Practical gifts go a long way in launching a new school. Browse our Amazon Wish List for items we need now, from books to classroom supplies and equipment.
Other in-kind needs:
- Used BJU Press curriculum and supplemental materials
- Classroom furniture, technology, and supplies
- Agriculture and gardening tools
- Outdoor recreation equipment
- Vehicles (vans, golf carts for campus use)
- Professional services (electrical, plumbing, IT, photography)
3. GIVE YOUR TIME
Volunteers are the heartbeat of a Christ-centered community. Whether you can give an hour a month or a day a week, we’d love to plug you in.
Volunteer opportunities include:
- Campus workdays and facility projects
- Skilled trades (carpentry, electrical, plumbing, landscaping)
- Reading mentors and tutors
- Field trip chaperones
- Special events and Parent Info Days
- Coaches and enrichment instructors
- Office and administrative support
The work of forming the next generation is spiritual work. We need partners who will pray for our students, our families, our staff, and the mission of ADI.
Join our prayer team and receive monthly updates on specific needs, praises, and ways to lift ADI up to the Lord.
Sometimes the most valuable gift is an introduction. Spreading the word about ADI helps us reach the families who are looking for exactly what we offer.
