Who gives to The Ambleside Fund?
The Ambleside Fund (formerly known as The Annual Fund) is our name for the main fund for Ambleside School. Each year parents, alumni, grandparents, parents of alumni, and employees are all asked to support this essential effort.
Why is giving important to Ambleside students?
Ambleside's tuition income only supports 84.6% of its operational budget. The generosity of the Ambleside community enables us to provide every student with an excellent education.
Parents, alumni, parents of alumni, grandparents, employees, and friends of Ambleside contribute essential support that strengthens the entire School.
Contributions benefit students, teachers, programs, and activities.
Do gifts toward particular school activities, trips, or programs go into The Ambleside Fund?
While gifts that are designated to support particular trips, and activities are greatly appreciated, these gifts do not support The Ambleside Fund. Unrestricted donations to The Ambleside Fund helps the School where and when the School needs it most.
How does a gift to the tuition assistance program help?
Since tuition assistance is a significant component of the School's budget, gifts to tuition assistance do support The Ambleside Fund.
