As with most independent schools, The Newman Fund is VITAL for supporting our general
operations and programming of academics, financial aid, scholarships, and activities.

The Newman Fund is our key vehicle to keep Newman affordable and accessible to all by
paying for:

• Continued growth in our academic programs
• Exciting development of our athletic and extracurricular activities
• The maintenance of our wonderful historic buildings
• The purchase of equipment for science, computer, music, and arts instruction
• Helping to pay our hard-working Newman faculty competitive salaries

The Newman Fund allows for additional student enrichment outside of the classroom to ensure
all students can discover their independence and master their passions, in an affordable,
equitable, and comfortable learning environment. This critical support strengthens The Newman
School and benefits every student, every faculty member, and all aspect of our programs.  
We are all active stakeholders who are promoting our mission, building our reputation, and
providing the resources to enhance the value of The Newman School education, and the
students’ degrees. Please consider making your gift today to The Newman Fund at

We are fortunate that we can fund so many programs at Newman and we rely on unrestricted
annual fund contributions to provide resources for students and faculty that support educational
components not covered by tuition alone. We do our best to enrich our student activities, without
asking for additional support fees.

We use the City of Boston as our classroom and often cover significant costs for our students
such as facility rentals, uniform costs, referee and trainer expenses, and the cost of event

Matching gifts are a type of philanthropy in which companies match donations that their
employees make to nonprofit organizations. When an employee donates, they will request the
matching gift from their employer, who then makes their own donation.

You could possibly double, or triple, your donation with a matching gift! We offer database of
over 24,000 companies who will match a portion, or all, of your donation; some companies even
match 3:1. To get started, talk your employer if they support this initiative.
