Help us reach 100%
class participation!

The Challenge is on!  We are pleased to report that the Annual Fund Challenge Match has kicked in and that those matching funds have helped us to reach over $970,000 for the Annual Fund.  There are still dollars out there just asking to be matched, so don’t let this opportunity pass as we rapidly approach $1,000,000 and beyond!

To all who have already made a gift—our many thanks and congratulations. Gifts are coming in at an overall average of 14% higher than last year. This is a remarkable achievement.

Give Today!
For those who have not yet given, please consider sending in your gift today and helping us take advantage of this generous opportunity.  All aspects of SFDS benefit from Annual Fund support: teacher salaries, professional development, outdoor education, art and music programs, learning resources –virtually every program at the School.  Gifts of cash, payable by check, are tax-deductible and provide the School with funds immediately available for use.  Download a pledge card and mail your checks to:

Development Office
San Francisco Day School
350 Masonic Avenue
San Francisco, CA  94118

To pay by credit card or for further information, contact Director of Development Wendy Singley at 415.568.3630 or donate now online.  Company matching gifts as well as gifts of stock and annuities will also be matched.  Every gift counts and will be matched, DOLLAR FOR DOLLAR! Help to get our participation up to our outstanding track record of over 97% every year. Each gift in a grade boosts that rate up 3 percentage points, so we haven’t far to go TO REACH 100%!
