ENDOWED FUNDS
GUS Endowment, a perpetual source of support, is essential in sustaining the school’s mission.

The effects of COVID-19 on the financial well-being of GUS and GUS families was not insignificant. Our response to meeting challenges created by covid-19 within our community was to create the GUS Together Fund. In keeping with our school’s desire to maintain a healthy, socio-economically diverse student body, the goal of this fund is to help retain current students whose families have been impacted by the pandemic, and to help the school manage unexpected change in the wake of this crisis. We were buoyed by the incredible generosity of the GUS community in response to the need. Thank you!
