What is The Fund for Tatnall?
The Fund for Tatnall is the School's unrestricted "current-use" fund for annual donations. These critical resources bolster our excellent academic, arts, and athletics programs, faculty resources and development, and financial aid. The Fund for Tatnall provides 4% of our operating budget each year, and unrestricted gifts empower Tatnall's leadership to invest strategically in our commitment to excellence.
Where does my donation go?
Unrestricted funds allow Tatnall the freedom of discretionary spending, and they are essential financial resources contributing to the effective operation of The Tatnall School. Your gifts may be used to cover overhead costs, such as expanding staff, purchasing new equipment, or investing in training and professional development; or they may also be used for strategic investment into new programs, technologies, student experiences, and facility upgrades. Either way, The Fund for Tatnall is the bedrock for maintaining our reputation for excellence while we build a bright future for our school and the students we serve.
