Transformative Major Gift Campaigns
Dedicated campaigns make possible new and renovated facilities and support special needs outside the annual operating budget. Capital gifts and major gifts are often committed over a three-to-five-year period. Gifts designated to Far Brook’s Endowment are invested, and only a percentage of the income from the principal is spent, ensuring that the gift continues in perpetuity.

As a former board member and former Campaign Co-Chair, I understand that capital giving is essential for independent schools because it helps fund projects beyond the scope of the operations budget and annual giving program. At Far Brook, these projects have included new buildings, updates to existing facilities, resources for faculty development and student tuition assistance, endowment enhancement, and other innovative projects. Capital campaigns can be transformational, changing the trajectory of schools for years to come.Diane Bakst, former Trustee & Co-Chair, Imagine The Possibilities Campaign, 2012-2015
