• Sandy Beaver Entrepreneurial Leadership Award

  The Sandy Beaver Entrepreneurial Leadership Award dinner is an annual event to honor area entrepreneurs whose business acumen and leadership are reminiscent of that of Sandy Beaver, RMA president from 1913 to 1969. Revenue and donations from the dinner will help grow the Riverside Military Academy Foundation and generate tuition assistance for families with demonstrated need.
  
  

  The inaugural dinner was held in August 2014, and the event is annually attended by hundreds including community leaders, alumni, RMA Trustees, and friends of the Academy. Interest in this fundraising dinner continues to grow.

• Endowed Scholarships

  Annual gifts provide yearly support for program enhancements and projects at the Academy, but larger gifts made over a three to five year period may fund endowed scholarships, capital projects, or provide needed assistance for already existing programs at the Academy.

  Scholarships, both merit and need-based, are an ongoing opportunity for support at Riverside. An endowed scholarship may be set up by an individual donor or a group of donors starting with a minimum gift of $10,000. The endowed fund is housed in The Riverside Military Academy Foundation and comingled with other endowed funds to maximize investment earnings. Each fund is tracked individually and the annual earnings provide scholarship aid or aid to existing programs. Several endowed scholarships exist at Riverside and donors may choose to contribute to these in lieu of creating their own endowment.
