Endowment Giving

Gifts to the endowment enhance the school’s core commitments and provide long-term financial stability.

George School’s endowment is comprised of general unrestricted endowed funds and named restricted endowed funds, both consisting of numerous contributions from generous alumni, parents, grandparents, and friends over the years. The most reliable sources of income, endowment funds allow George School to continue investing in the excellence of its campus, faculty, and student experience. No other form of giving addresses long-term needs as effectively.

The principal amount of the endowed funds is held in perpetuity and invested for long-term growth. Annually, a portion of the endowment’s total market value is utilized to further the school’s mission.

Contributions to the general endowment supplement tuition revenue and the George School Fund, enabling the school to tackle unforeseen challenges, support programs or scholarships that may lack funding, or provide immediate financial aid not covered by the operating budget.

Gifts to named restricted endowed funds are allocated each year according to the donor’s specified purposes, such as supporting financial aid and faculty professional development.
