Dear parents, alumnae, and friends,
Now more than ever, the world needs Willows and Willows alumnae.
During this extraordinary time that both isolates and unites us in unexpected ways, our girls, our teachers - our whole community - is divided by distance but unified in our commitment to continue our Willows education in this stay-at-home season.
Our community has rallied and is successfully meeting the challenge of eLearning – learning new tools, routines, and schedules, practically overnight.
Our faculty are working beyond all expectations showing great flexibility and adaptability—supporting our girls while caring for their own families and navigating the new normal. Our parents are tireless partners and we are edified by their strength and generous, daily support for their daughters and for Willows.
We are an adaptable, joyful, vibrant community rooted in the Catholic faith. We are sustained by faith, hope, and charity: faith in God’s providence, hope for the future, and charity for our families and others.
In ordinary times, tuition revenue alone is insufficient to cover the cost of educating our students – we depend on the generosity of supporters like you. In these extraordinary times, your support is essential to maintain our budget and continue our mission.
Our community faces unprecedented financial instability, business closures, and unemployment, and more of our Willows families will need a variety of support. The greater success we have with our annual fund, the more we will be able to give to our daughters and students in the coming years.
Our goal for the annual fund is simple,
bolster the culture of giving in the Willows community and achieve 100% participation from current families, board members, and staff.
Times are difficult, yet together we make up a resilient family. We are confident we can reach this goal through generosity at all levels.
To enable the success of our campaign, two current families have generously come forward and offered a dollar for dollar match for the first $50,000 raised.
We are grateful to have you as part of our Willows family and for your partnership in advancing our mission.
Thank you in advance for your generosity,
