Supporting the Lawrenceville Experience
Lawrenceville is more than an education. The Lawrenceville experience is transformational, and supporting the unique blend of ingredients that shape students' lives is vitally important.
Emerge Transformed
Emerge Transformed was the most successful campaign ever conducted by an independent school, raising $475.7 million for School programs and priorities: $117.8 million for student scholarships; $69.8 million for faculty and academic support; $141 million for the new Tsai Field House, Gruss Center for Art and Design (GCAD), and other campus improvements; and $43.6 million for The Lawrenceville Fund. Nearly $212 million was added to the School's endowment.
Now our collective job is to keep that momentum going. As we look to the future, we have suggestions for your support:
The Lawrenceville Fund
to support the annual operating budget and every aspect of the Lawrenceville experience
Campus Wellbeing Initiatives
to protect the health of our campus community
Best for All Funds
to support the work of our faculty and staff
Big Red Farm
to expand and reinforce lessons in environmental sustainability
Carless Bowl
to create a new community space at the heart of our campus
The Lawrenceville Fund and the Parents Fund
The success of The Lawrenceville Fund reflects a spirit of shared experience and mutual encouragement, as each generation of Lawrentians preserves the legacy of opportunity it received, strengthens it, and passes it on.
Capital and Endowment Giving
There are numerous opportunities for donors to leave their mark on the School through a capital or endowed gift.
Planned Giving
Making a planned gift is a wonderful way to show your support and appreciation for The Lawrenceville School and its mission while accommodating your own personal, financial, estate-planning, and philanthropic goals.
Reunion Giving
Reunions are the ideal occasion to reflect on how the School has transformed your life and the lives of your classmates—and the perfect occasion to demonstrate your pride in the School and gratitude for your Lawrenceville education by reinvesting in its future.
Lawrenceville has three main sources of funding: income from the endowment, The Lawrenceville Fund, and tuition. It’s easy to see why your support of the first two is so important. But don’t take our word for it. Here’s what our alumni and parents have to say:
In order to deliver on our mission, we’ve got to ensure that we’re able to admit and educate students based on their strengths and potential and not on their ability to pay.

We're just so impressed with the Lawrenceville community and the support the teachers provide...We thought it was important to acknowledge their contributions.
Karen and Tim Piacentini P'24
We give to Lawrenceville simply because it's the best. The students, the faculty, the coaches – they're all engaged members of the community. And the academics? Unparalleled.
Allison and Jeffrey McKibben P'22 '25 '27
By supporting The Lawrenceville Fund at a leadership level, I can make a real difference in the lives of students both now and in the future.
