Other Ways to Give
In addition to the generous financial gifts that benefit the school and its students, we also rely on the time, talents, resources and energies of our volunteers.
Have some time?
We love our volunteers and it’s a great way to give back. Volunteering also allows you the opportunity to spend time in the school and see and hear what the current students are up to.
If you would like to volunteer, please contact Barbara Engel, Executive Director at the A&F office.
Have some resources?
We welcome gifts that help our office operate and donations for the school.
Our current “wish list” includes:
- Computers, printers and smart boards for the classrooms
- Musical instruments: the school really needs instruments for the students, especially bassoons and string instruments
- Fabric for Costumes
- 35mm cameras (especially Pentax K100 cameras)
Donations of equipment and supplies are tax-deductible. If you would like to make a donation, please contact the A&F office at: (212) 595-1301 or barbara@alumniandfriends.org.
