Launch of ONEGillispie Annual Giving

Happy third week of school! It was lovely seeing so many of you at Back to School Night where the energy was terrific. Clearly, we enjoy being together! As you heard our Board Chair, Jonathan Lischke, share in his remarks, we are launching our ONEGillispie Annual Giving campaign. Over the next several days you will receive a letter and a pledge form from Erin and Mitch Otolski, Parent Chairs of this effort, enabling you to make your commitment.

As you will read in their letter, we reach out to friends and family each year to help us make up the difference between what a Gillispie education costs and the income derived from tuition. Board members and faculty/staff have already been solicited and are responding with great generosity.

I hope that you, too, will respond with generous hearts! Because we are a community, and what benefits one of us benefits all of us, we aspire to 100% participation. We do not have a threshold or minimum required gift—we just ask that you make a gift that is meaningful to you. While we ask for your commitment now, we do not require immediate payment. You will see on the pledge form you receive the many ways you can pay your pledge throughout the year. If you ever have any questions about this effort or have ideas you would like to share, please do not hesitate to contact me at x133, or at [email protected]. It is an honor to work with you all.

Gratefully,

Debbie Rodriguez, Director of Advancement & Community Relations
