Giving Day (April 9, 2026) is a special moment within our Annual Fund, an opportunity for the entire Rumsey community to come together in support of our School.

The Annual Fund strengthens every part of the student experience. As our most important source of philanthropic support, it fuels the people, programs, and opportunities that help students grow—academically, artistically, athletically, socially, and as young leaders. Every gift directly supports the faculty who guide them, the spaces where they learn, and the moments that shape who they become.

At Rumsey, growth is our shared journey. We all grow at Rumsey. Your generosity ensures that each student has the foundation to discover their fullest potential.
