Support SPHDS

The SPHDS Fund helps to bridge the 17% gap between the actual cost of an SPHDS education and tuition. Each fall parents, trustees, alumni, grandparents, parents of alumni and friends are asked to make unrestricted operating gifts to help bridge the gap between tuition and the actual cost of educating each child. The money that is raised through the Annual Fund supports many important programs for SPHDS. This fund supports continuing education courses for faculty, innovative programming, financial assistance, and fine arts programs. All these services are intrinsic to our students’ education; all are crucial to the sustained excellence of our school. We are striving for 100% participation, from parents, in the SPHDS Fund. With this kind of parent participation, the school has the opportunity to receive grants and other outside funding which might not otherwise be available.

Matching Gifts

Whether you give cash, securities or real property, many employers offer matching gift programs, which increase the value of your gift to SPHDS. We recommend you contact your employer directly to inquire if your company will match your gift and for the company matching gift guidelines.

Honor Funds

Making an Honor Fund tribute gift is a wonderful way to honor a family member, friend, colleague or loved one while at the same time supporting SPHDS. Contributions may be made in any amount; often, they are made in increments of $18, a number signifying the Hebrew word meaning “life.” Donations to tribute funds can mark a special occasion such as a wedding, a new baby, graduation, special achievement, or in memory of a loved one. Numerous tribute funds exist at SPHDS including the Unrestricted Fund, the Head of School’s Discretionary Fund, the Library Fund, Gan Aviv Pre-school, Science Lab, and Playground Equipment. A tribute card will be sent to the person(s) the donor wishes to acknowledge, informing them of the donation.
