WHY SUPPORT AAI?
With students from dozens of cultural backgrounds, we have the incredible opportunity to walk closely with them every day as they discover that they are loved by God. Whether it's in the classroom, at a retreat, on the soccer field, or during a service-learning trip, we are shaping the values of tomorrow’s leaders. The success of our alumni around the world is a great testament to the lasting impact of an AAI education.
SUPPORT US WITH PRAYER AND GIVING
We would value your prayers! Every day our teachers and administrators need God’s wisdom. We want to impact students’ minds AND hearts. We would also deeply value your generous financial support. AAI seeks to provide a transformational education and your support of the initiatives below will make this happen to a greater degree.
Dale Groeneweg Hands-On Exploration Fund
Embark on a journey of hands-on learning and innovation with the Dale Groeneweg Hands-On Exploration Fund. Named in honor of Dale Groeneweg, a dedicated lifelong member of the AAI faculty and former manual arts teacher, this fund seeks to advance education in engineering, robotics, and manual arts. Donations to this fund will contribute to the establishment of a state-of-the-art robotics lab, fostering a dynamic intersection between traditional craftsmanship and modern technology. Your support empowers students to excel through experiential learning, creating a legacy of innovation at Alliance Academy International.
Explore the legacy of Dale Groeneweg and join us in shaping a future where students encounter purpose, hope, and a passion for lifelong learning.
Building for Tomorrow Fund
This fund is for initiatives related to advancing our educational mission. Our greatest priority at the moment is to secure a new campus by 2028 when our current lease expires. From the new site we plan to seize emerging opportunities to make Christian education more accessible, affordable and transformational. Our vision is to impact more of Ecuador with an expansion of educational offerings. Your partnership with us will help AAI stay relevant and impactful for the next 100 years.
AAI Calacali Spiritual Formation & Retreat Center Fund
You undoubtedly already know, or have at least heard about, the beauty of living in Quito. You also know what a struggle it can be to maintain an ever-improving relationship with God when surrounded by the constant hustle and bustle of such a dense urban environment. Your donation for Spiritual Formation will help start and improve programs at AAI’s farm in Calacali. Faculty and staff will have exactly what they need to “get away from it all” – and get into better touch with God.
Donations will also assist in providing targeted spiritual growth activities for students.
AAI Student Scholarship Fund
Violent protests in late 2019, coupled with Ecuador’s COVID-19 response, have produced a doubly burdened economy that is unlikely to recover in the next few years. To maintain enrollment of students who truly represent our commitment to eternity, excellence, and community, we have had to provide families with significant tuition discounts. We will be providing approximately $350,000 in financial aid this school year. Your donation helps us continue to serve students until their families can recover from this difficult time.

David Landers Memorial Scholarship Fund

Your donation to the Dave Landers Memorial Scholarship helps us provide the very best AAI education to the very best students.

Rob Quiring Legacy Scholarship Fund
Carpe Aeternitatem (Seize Eternity) are two powerful, yet simple, words that best describe the values and passion of former AAI professor Rob Quiring.
He led his students to pursue the Author of Eternity passionately and still leads today through his legacy. Your donation to the Rob Quiring Legacy Scholarship Fund helps us provide students with more opportunities to encounter purpose and hope as they dive into the written word. Recipients are voracious readers who are inspired to seize eternity and share it with others.
Donations will also assist in providing targeted spiritual growth activities for students.
AAI Adam Yoder Memorial Fund
Adam poured out his exemplary life with AAI students, faculty, and staff for nine years. His quiet strength, wisdom, and quick wit continue to inspire us. His love of Christ continues to challenge us. Although the void that he leaves is impossible to fill, we are encouraged by the firmest assurance that today he rests in the presence of our Lord Jesus.
Much more than their teacher or vice-principle, Adam strove to make himself invariably and easily accessible for his students. He made special time for struggling students and always had a listening ear. This importance in his students’ lives ensured he had great opportunities to disciple them, especially in intentional settings like the Man Up Retreat.
Those who would like to honor this legacy through a gift can donate to the Adam Yoder Memorial Fund. Your donation will directly support initiatives enabling the Christian spiritual formation of AAI students, faculty & staff, and others in Ecuador.
