FRIENDS’ CENTRAL SCHOOL GIVING Gifts to the Friends’ Central Fund are an important way for families, alumni/ae, faculty, staff, and friends to demonstrate their commitment to Friends’ Central. There is a strong tradition of giving at FCS, and the ongoing generosity of so many allows the legacy of support to continue year after year. Annually, over 1,500 generous community members contribute to the School’s operating budget. The School’s operating budget directly impacts the people and programs that make an FCS education extraordinary. Specifically, gifts to the Friends’ Central Fund include financial aid for talented students, faculty and staff support, diversity, equity, and inclusion programming, student-life initiatives, such as athletics and the arts, and much more. Participation in the Friends’ Central Fund at any and all levels makes a 17 difference because it affirms belief in our mission and models the way for all members of our community to show support for our school.

Additionally, Annual Fund volunteers are vital to the success of the Annual Giving Campaign. Tasks may include connecting with community members (grade specific) through making phone calls, sending emails or text messages, or connecting through social media. Typically, volunteers are needed for community-wide Giving Days in the fall and the spring. Serving as an Annual Fund volunteer has an immediate impact on the School and our ability to fulfill our mission of excellence at every level. To become an Annual Fund volunteer, contact Melissa DiNofia - Bozzone, Director of Annual Giving, at mdinofia@friendscentral.org or call 610.645.5420.
