The Fund for CWA 2025-26
When you make a gift to CWA, you invest in our students and faculty. The Fund for CWA is essential to our school, supporting current-year operating expenses not covered by tuition. We rely on our school community to contribute meaningfully to ensure we can provide an outstanding education for every student so that they may develop the skills to successfully navigate the future with confidence.
