Drexel Neumann Academy (DNA) is celebrating our 16th year of providing a safe quality education to the children of Chester. Children who are being raised in a neighborhood of violence and crime and whose public school system is one of the lowest performing school districts in the state. The school district in Chester has a 20% proficiency in Math and 13% in reading. Our school provides an opportunity for the children of Chester to receive a safe, quality, education.

We are requesting a donation to be used as a silent auction item in our 16th Annual Drexel Neumann Academy Golf Classic being held on May 8, 2023 at the Springhaven Club. All donations from this fundraiser will go directly to help the low-income families of Chester with tuition assistance, helping to provide a safe quality, faith-based education, for children who without this support, would grow up in failing school system.

Drexel Neumann Academy (DNA) is an independent Catholic school located in the struggling city of Chester, Pennsylvania.  Admittance is offered to any child who resides in Chester, there is no discrimination based on religion, financial resources, or race.  Over 90% of the students are non-Catholic and 100% require tuition assistance. The average income of our families is $31,600. All of our families require and receive tuition assistance. DNA has become a beacon of hope in a city whose children know all too well about poverty and violence. Given the opportunity to attend DNA, our students are succeeding. In a city with a 58% high school graduation rate, 100% of our graduates have graduated from high school and are succeeding in college or the work force.
