Annual Fund Campaign Needs Your Support!

Dear Weizmann Parents,

As you know, Weizmann's Annual Fund campaign is under way. Annual Fund money allows Weizmann to maintain its first-rate faculty and programming. We are very grateful to all of Weizmann's donors.

The Weizmann Board currently is working hard to reach this year's Annual Fund goal of $170,000. We currently have received donations and pledges totaling $109,984. Your donation -- no matter the size -- will help us reach our goal!

Remember that school funders often look to see what percentage of the currently enrolled families donate to a school. That makes it very important for us to have 100% family participation in the Annual Fund. Please help us to reach this goal.

In addition, thanks to a very generous donor, any first-time donation from a family and any increase over a donation from last year will be matched up to a total of $10,000 so long as we get $40,000 in "new or increased" donations. To date we have received over $22,000 in pledges of "new or increased" funds, leaving just about $16,000 to go. You can help us close the gap and unlock this fabulous gift.

Thank you in advance for your generous participation.

The Weizmann Board of Trustees

We now have donations from 40% of Weizmann families!
