You don’t have to wait until Giving Tuesday to support your school!

Gifts to the Annual Fund provide critical resources that support the essentials of our programming, while allowing us flexibility to direct funds to where they are needed most such as field work, classroom materials, and support for professional development that keeps our teachers at the leading edge of changes in the field of education. Charitable gifts allow us to invest in those value-driven aspects of The Graham Family of Schools that set us apart from other schools. Every member of our community is asked to participate: parents, grandparents, board members, community members and friends. 

Giving to the Annual Fund is quick and easy. 
  • It can be done securely online by clicking here. 
  • On GivingTuesday. Donate securely on December 3, 2024, online by clicking on the Donate button! GivingTuesday is a global generosity movement, unleashing the power of radical generosity to transform communities and the world. When you give to the Annual Fund on December 3 you will be joining people around the world coming together to thank, help, give, show kindness, and share what they have with those in need.
Contributions are tax-deductible and will significantly impact our ability to achieve our educational mission.
Any size gift will make a difference for our students!
