Moreys PiersMalvern Prep Day at Morey's Piers - August 1
Point Person: Larry Legner, Christian Service Director - 484-595-1163
Tickets are still available! Larry Legner will be selling tickets at the Mariners Landing Pier on Schellenger Ave. by the parent’s pavilion on Sunday from 9:00 a.m. until 2:00 p.m. The Morey family, owners and operators of Morey's Piers in Wildwood, N.J., have made a wonderful offer to support Malvern Prep's Senior Service Program. On Sunday, August 1, they are hosting a Malvern Prep Day at Morey's Piers. For only $40.00 per person ($28.00 for children under 48 inches) you get full, unlimited access to every ride on all three of their amusement piers and full access to both water parks from 9:00 a.m. until closing. The normal cost of an all day pass is $58.00, so this is a great buy! And the good news is that the Morey family is donating 100% of the proceeds to Malvern Prep's Christian Service Program! Please see the attached letter from Larry Legner for more information.
 
Direct Your State Business Taxes to Support Malvern Prep
Point Person: Marty Farrell, Vice President – 484-595-1111
Would you like to direct 90% of your business taxes to Malvern Prep instead of the state? Well, you can through an easy and extremely worthwhile program for Pennsylvania business owners, LLC partners or those with S Corporation pass through income. The Pennsylvania Educational Improvement Tax Credit Program (EITC) is the only state program that allows taxpayers to direct where and how their tax dollars are spent. Last year, directly because of the EITC, Malvern Prep was able to offer approximately $140,000 of financial aid to academically qualified students who otherwise would not be able to afford the education at Malvern. It is very simple for your business to participate. We hope you will consider supporting Malvern through this unique program. Please click here for more detailed information, an application or a list of Frequently Asked Questions.
