Parent Giving
The Parents Fund
Every gift matters, and your contribution to The Parents Fund, no matter the size, is a tangible way to support your student’s FGS experience. As part of The 1850 Fund, annual gifts to The Parents Fund — from current parents, grandparents and parents of alumni — have an immediate impact on every student and faculty member: funding extracurricular activities, campus renewal projects, faculty development, department budgets, and much more.
Parent Leadership Giving
If your family is in a position to give at the leadership level, please consider an annual contribution to The Parents Fund of $1,850 or more. Current parents who give at this leadership level are recognized alongside alumni as members of The Founders Society.
Volunteer Opportunities
If you are interested in volunteering on The Parents Fund Committee to help build relationships with current families and raise awareness about the importance of giving, please contact Hannah Alley-Keller, Director of Development Operations at (860) 350-0184 or alley-kellerh@frederickgunn.org.
The Founders Society
Recognizing all alumni and parent leadership donors annually giving $1,850 or above to The 1850 Fund. Young alumni who graduated in the last 10 years qualify for Founders Society membership with a minimum gift of $925.
