Make a gift to the Annual Fund to help George School earn Loyalty Points.

Sadly, George School lost the Machemer Cup to Westtown again in 2010-2011. Please help us beat Westtown and reclaim the cup in 2011-2012 by making your gift now. Every donation is important, and because the competition is based on the number of gifts, contributions of every size count equally for the Loyalty Challenge.


What is the Loyalty Challenge?

The Loyalty Challenge is an annual competition between George School and Westtown School sponsored by Paul Machemer, GS ’65 and Pam Rea Machemer, Westtown ’64. They created this challenge because they wondered which school’s graduates were more loyal to their alma mater. The Machemer Cup is awarded annually to the winning school.

Here’s how it works: The last twenty graduating classes, as well as the current senior class, compete head-to-head for Loyalty Points. For example, George School’s Class of 2000 competes against Westtown’s Class of 2000. One Loyalty Point is awarded for each class; the point goes to the school with the greater percentage of donors to the Annual Fund for that particular class. There are twenty-one Loyalty Points in all. The winner of the competition is the school that has more Loyalty Points at the end of the fiscal year.

It doesn’t matter how much money is donated; what matters is the number of people who give. So please give today!
