We are thankful for those who gave to Westtown while I was a student, making opportunities possible that may not have been possible otherwise. We feel good about supporting Westtown today to give others those same opportunities, and we know that any donation, no matter the size, helps to support another student’s Westtown experience.

I have found myself contributing outside of the annual fund. Areas I enjoyed the most include the science/engineering programs (a classmate and I started the robotics team), and the outdoor program.

We are one family giving back because we believe in Westtown and our giving is a show of belief. We know what matters is not the amount; it is participation every year.

Philanthropy supports many different areas of the school, from the care of our beautiful campus and updated technology, to teacher professional development and program materials, to financial aid and athletics and much more.
We are pleased to announce that our generous Westtown School community contributed more than $9.7 million to Westtown during our 2022-2023 fiscal year, nearly $2 million more than our five-year average total!
Contributions to the Westtown Fund, operations, endowed funds, and capital projects are critical to our fiscal sustainability, and support the work we do in every part of the school. Each dollar raised enhances student programs and provides opportunities for students to engage in inquiry, problem-solving, in collaboration with their peers and faculty.
We extend heartfelt gratitude to our donors who demonstrated their dedication and commitment to Westtown and their passion for our mission and values. We deeply appreciate every donor, volunteer, and community member who helped us advance our vision, and we are sincerely grateful for your philanthropic support.
Thank you, Westonians!
In the classroom, on the field, in the theater, and on dorm, the Westtown Fund supports our students – from Primary Circle to the senior class – with opportunities to expand their intellectual and personal growth. The impact of the Westtown Fund is seen in our excellent faculty, our innovative programs, our beautiful campus and above all else, in every student, every day.
