Give now

DONATE TO THE TCS ANNUAL FUND

All contributions to the TCS Annual Fund matter. Because giving is such a personal decision, we encourage each family to give to the best of their ability. For some families, that amount is $100, for others it is $20,000. When everyone in the community gives, these contributions add up and strengthen The Country School.


Dear TCS Community Members,

This is my first year at The Country School and I must say it has been wonderful getting to know all of you. Truly, I feel fortunate to be joining you at this seminal moment in our history as we continue to celebrate 75 years. Over the course of these past few months, I have had the privilege to immerse myself in the Country School milieu and during that process, have found myself repeatedly overwhelmed by this remarkable community.

In the many ways, The Country School serves as a microcosm for how we would like the world to be — an ethnically and culturally diverse community that is a safe space for all, a place where student potential is seen and nurtured, a philosophy that prioritizes social-emotional wellness, and a worldview that values social awareness and encourages active participation in dismantling injustices.

These Country School Characteristics are reasons alone to give back and this year’s 75th Anniversary Annual Fund Campaign provides the ideal opportunity to do so. Like every independent school, the Annual Fund is our largest fundraiser. Your support will help provide faculty salaries, enrichment opportunities, enhanced classroom resources and technology, campus upgrades, and so much more!

As we continue to make every effort to adapt to your child’s educational needs in an ever-changing society, Annual Giving is integral and without it we simply cannot fulfill our mission.

This year, I hope you will join our Faculty & Staff and Board of Trustees who have already given. Our goal is to raise our most in TCS history with 100% participation from our families. Together we can achieve this ambitious goal and as always, your gift is tax-deductible.

Thank you in advance for partnering with us to empower our students to achieve their goals and reach their full potential. As in years past, we hope we can count on you.

With Gratitude,

Ty Trumbo

Director of Development

Thousands of companies have established programs that will match employee charitable donations. This is an easy way to double the size of your Annual Giving contribution.

Planned Gifts and Bequests
A planned gift (also known as a deferred or estate gift) is a wonderful way to support The Country School and may provide additional tax or financial benefits. Please consult your tax advisor for more information.

What will your legacy be? As a community, we have interwoven legacies. Much like a beautiful painting, with each brush stroke contributing a unique texture and color, the legacy of our students consists of the educated, varied legacies of each of us. Your legacy to The Country School will significantly impact the lives of future Country School students. It will be a way for you to say, “My time here has mattered.” A bequest is one way to leave a legacy.
