giving Programs
Throughout the year, the Hewitt community focuses intently on the Annual Fund which supplies current-year support for Hewitt's highest needs. We also come together around special programming and additional opportunities to show support for our school.
Benefit
The Hewitt School Benefit is the school's largest fundraising and community-building event of the year, netting more than $325,000 annually. This year, proceeds from the Benefit will be used to enhance our visiting scholars program, which brings nationally recognized experts to Hewitt to work closely with our community to ensure that our girls thrive in an environment designed for what they need. We hope you will join us as we celebrate together the value, the power, and the impact of research on educating girls to use their voices, to think adventurously, and to make original and sound contributions to society. Parents are asked to participate in some way: underwriting the event, sponsoring faculty tickets, volunteering their time and talent, donating auction items, and of course by attending and having a good time!
For more information about this event, including underwriting and auction item donations, please contact Kelsey Rodriguez.

"Stickins" Clothing Labels

"Stikins" peel n' stick name tag labels work on clothing, shoes, water bottles, and backpacks. Plus, each purchase made with the coupon code “Hewitt," delivers a 20% commission back to our school.
Please note that for each of these programs, we are not able to distinguish whose purchases were responsible for the funds that come to Hewitt. We so appreciate this extra support for the school, but will not be able to attribute any of these funds to individual donors.
