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. Over 425 parents, grandparents, alumnae, faculty, and friends join us at our annual Benefit to celebrate Hewitt.

We are pleased to announce that the 2020 Benefit will be held on Thursday, March 5, 2020 at Cipriani 42nd Street. Funds raised at the Benefit will allow Hewitt to create multiple learning spaces that support immersive, collaborative, and hands-on learning to better prepare Hewitt girls and young women for college, career, and life.

Members of the Hewitt community are asked to participate in some way: donating auction items, underwriting the event, sponsoring faculty tickets, volunteering their time and talent, 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 or visit our 2020 Benefit website.

"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.

Hewitt Day (April 23)

Nearly a century after our school’s founding, Caroline Hewitt’s philosophy remains at the core of a Hewitt education. Through mindful teaching and learning, our passionate faculty inspire Hewitt students to take ownership of their learning and develop projects that are personally meaningful to them.

On Hewitt Day, we come together as a community to celebrate the role of The Hewitt School in our lives and honor the life and legacy of Caroline Hewitt's commitment to empowering students to discover their individual sense of purpose in the world.
