As seasons change on campus, the Beaver community is looking ahead to its annual Giving Day on Wednesday, February 24, 2027.
By expanding volunteer networks, deepening peer-to-peer engagement across all constituencies, and inspiring early leadership support, the community aims to set new benchmarks for participation and total giving, ensuring continued momentum and flexible funding for Beaver’s students and programs.
Giving Day challenges all Beaver fans—current families, alumni, past parents, faculty, and grandparents—to support its Annual Fund by coming together on a single day.
The 2026 Giving Day, the “For the DAM” campaign, brought the entire school community together for a high-energy celebration of philanthropy and school pride. The campaign surpassed the goal set for the day and raised over $448K for the 2026 Annual Fund, which last year raised a record-breaking total of $2.2M.
This immediate funding empowers school leadership to respond flexibly to unexpected student initiatives, faculty ideas, and creative projects that arise throughout the academic year.
The day’s momentum came from targeted community challenges for alumni, senior families, and overall participation. By combining friendly competition with peer-to-peer volunteer outreach, Giving Day becomes about community engagement, as well as propelling the Annual Fund.
