A month-long Annual Fund campaign from October 1 - 31 to celebrate our students and faculty and support our school's mission of scholarship, diversity, and citizenship.

In October, the Head-Royce community comes together to celebrate the daily work
of our students and faculty with a month long fundraising effort for Annual Fund. Givetober is
a joyful time on campus, with fun raffles, friendly competition, and perhaps a visit from Tuffy!

Everyone! Parents, trustees, alumni, faculty, staff, grandparents, parents of alumni, and friends are all invited to come together in support of our students and programs. 

Philanthropic support from our community is essential to maintaining our standard of excellence, and the most important way you can make a difference. Unrestricted, flexible support enables Head-Royce to attract and retain world-class faculty, as well as provide the very best programs and resources for our students. Your donation received now will go to work for the entire school year, providing competitive salaries, benefits, and professional development for our teachers, innovative curriculum and project-based learning opportunities, student wellness resources, technology, performing and visual arts, athletics, and financial aid.

Head-Royce is committed to remaining a diverse school. By keeping tuition increases at a competitive level and relying on Annual Fund support, Head-Royce is accessible to a wider range of students. We count on your generosity
to assure that every student can benefit from all that Head-Royce has to offer.

Every family at Head-Royce is encouraged to participate in a way that is personally meaningful. Every gift, whether large or small, makes a difference. Head-Royce strives for 100% participation from all current parents, Trustees, faculty & staff. Gifts range from $5 – $50,000, and make a significant impact on the daily experience of all Head-Royce students.

Leadership giving begins at $5,000 and is one of the ways to make a significant impact on the daily experience of all Head-Royce students. Leadership gifts account for approximately 80% of all dollars raised and each year we have nearly 200 families who support the Annual Fund at the Leadership level. 

Many companies double charitable gifts to independent schools. If your employer has a matching gift program you can often double the impact of your support with a simple form or click. To see if your company has a program visit our matching gifts page.

Capital campaigns occur every 5–7 years and provide funds for projects that fall outside the normal operating budget, such as campus expansions and endowment. Capital contributions are generally larger and made in addition to your Annual Fund gift, and can be pledged over three or more years. Annual Fund gifts are payable in one year, by the end of the fiscal year, June 30.
