WIS Giving Days 2026
From October 21–23, WIS needs your help to reach our goal of 400 gifts!
What is the purpose of WIS Giving Days?
Giving Days is our three-day, campus-wide celebration of giving in support of the WIS Annual Fund. It brings together parents, alumni, grandparents, faculty, staff, and friends from both campuses to show what collective giving makes possible at WIS. Since 2018, our community has raised more than $1.6 million through Giving Days, and counting. This year marks our eighth Giving Days, and a group of generous families has come together to offer a $100,000 match. If 400 members of our community give during these three days, that match unlocks, meaning every gift goes even further.
How can I participate in Giving Days?
If you’re on campus October 21 through 23, you won’t miss! If you can’t make it to campus, you can still be part of it. Give anytime during the three days, follow along on social media with #WISGivingDays, or check back on this page to see how close we are to reaching 400 donors and unlocking the match.
What exactly is the $100,000 match?
A group of generous WIS families has pledged $100,000 total. If 400 people give during Giving Days, that pledge unlocks and gets distributed toward the Annual Fund, on top of what’s already been given.
What does my gift support?
At WIS, philanthropy is not about covering what tuition should. It is about strengthening what makes this community extraordinary, and each year we invite our entire community to be part of that through the Annual Fund. These gifts support financial aid, faculty development, and programs and experiences that enrich student life, helping WIS remain exceptional, globally minded, and accessible to students from a wide range of backgrounds. Every gift, at every level, is a meaningful expression of partnership and belief in the school.
The Annual Fund is the school’s top fundraising priority and the way most families take part. Because it is unrestricted, your gift reaches this year’s budget and goes where WIS needs it most.
