Comet Business Partnership
Dear Kalamazoo Christian Schools Supporter,
We are thrilled to launch our Comet Business Partnership campaign for the 2026-2027 school year!
We’ve listened to feedback from our community partners like you and have streamlined our marketing opportunities into four clear and effective Giving Levels to make participation simpler and more impactful.
