Gifts of Gratitude
With your support, we met our Appreciation Week(s) donor goal! Since July 1, 2024, nearly 1,600 community members have given back to Brooks to help us fulfill our mission to provide the most meaningful educational experience our students will have in their lives. Thank you for making Brooks a philanthropic priority this school year. If you’d like to make a gift for FY26 (July 1, 2025 - June 30, 2026), please visit https://www.brooksschool.org/giving. Demonstrate your love for the people, places and programs that define Brooks. What made your Brooks experience or the experience of a loved one exceptional? Who or what do you choose to honor with your gift? Don’t forget to highlight a person, program or dorm when you submit your donation!
