Giving Priorities: Shaping Brentwood's Future
At Brentwood College School, philanthropy powers the extraordinary student experience. Your generosity ensures we can continue to set the global standard for inspirational and transformative learning.
The support of our alumni, parents, and friends is focused on three main pillars that address our immediate operational needs, provide access to deserving students, and secure our long-term vision.
The Brentwood Annual Fund (Our Top Philanthropic Priority)
The Annual Fund is the cornerstone of Brentwood’s financial health, directly supporting the current year’s operating budget. Every student immediately benefits from the generosity of this fund. Your Annual Fund gift at work: Faculty Excellence: Funding for competitive salaries and professional development opportunities. Programs & Innovation: Enhancing robust student programs, arts, and athletics, and launching new curriculum initiatives. Operating Support: Bridge the gap between tuition and the true cost of delivering a world-class education. Our Goal: We strive for 100% participation from our community. A gift of any size makes an immediate and lasting impact on the student experience.
Bursaries & Endowment (Financial Aid and Access)
We believe that a Brentwood education should be accessible to bright and deserving children regardless of their financial background. Gifts directed towards Bursaries and the Endowment have a transformational, long-lasting impact.
Student Financial Aid: Funds go directly to providing bursaries that change lives by offering access to a Brentwood education for a wider diversity of students.
Endowment Growth: Gifts to our various Endowment Funds (including the Grad Class Endowment Funds) ensure financial stability and generate interest that provides predictable, ongoing support for student financial aid and strategic initiatives for generations to come.
The 2025 Grad Class Endowment Fund is a key initiative, with each graduating class raising money to perpetually support bursaries in their name.
