Annual Funds provide unrestricted current operating support for the School's budget. Annual Funds are on-going gifts of loyalty on which the School depends to meet its annual expenses.

The four Annual Funds are Fair Share (current parents), Alumni Fund, Grandparents Fund, and Parents of Alumni & Friends Fund. This year, Annual Funds will contribute $1,875,000 to the School. This is an indispensable piece of the operating budget that enables the School to fulfill its commitments to financial aid and to faculty salaries, and to ensure the excellence of a Sidwell Friends education.

Fair Share
In the 2004-2005 School year, Fair Share parents raised more than half of the Annual Funds total for the year and achieved a record 90% participation rate.  SFS parents have established a strong and valued tradition of support for Sidwell Friends School. Under the leadership of Fair Share Co-Chairs Chuck Muckenfuss and Betsy Wanger, the committee hopes to surpass last year's goals and increase its already exemplary participation level.

Alumni Fund
In seeking $675,000 in alumni support, SFS is turning to those who know the School best: its graduates. Under the leadership of Alumni Fund Chair Bill Johnson '72 a host of enthusiastic alumni volunteers has been assembled to contact each and every classmate, in the hopes that the alumni body will rise to the occasion, meet its ambitious goal and increase class participation.
