The Bishop’s Fund is the most crucial fundraising priority at The Bishop’s School impacting all areas of campus. From faculty and staff professional development, academics to athletics, and technology to the arts, it is the most elastic source of funding available to meet emerging essential needs.
Comprising five percent of the School’s operating budget, gifts to The Bishop’s Fund are unrestricted and are able to be put to use immediately. This foundational fund is representative of the inclusive community of givers who come together each year to sustain the commitment to excellence that sets Bishop’s apart and collectively make a difference.
Please join us in advancing our mission of nurturing students of intellect and character to think independently, learn collaboratively, grow their sense of self and act with greater purpose. The world needs what the Bishop’s learner can do.
