Blair Parents Continue to Break Records with their Support of the School

Parents contributed a record-breaking $469,000 compared to last year’s $359,00. A sincere thanks to Blair parents and families who gave to the Fund.

We are pleased to announce that parents once again showed their support of the Blair Fund this year (2004-2005) with outstanding participation of 73%. Blair continues to have one of the highest participation rates in the country for a boarding school of its size. Also impressive is the fact that Blair families gave $469,000 to the Annual Giving Campaign this year, compared to last year’s $359,000.

We offer you our sincere appreciation for helping us achieve these unprecedented numbers. Your gifts are truly an example that each and every gift, and everyone’s involvement, can make a significant difference. Your gifts allow Blair to grow and continue to offer our students a superior education.

Fifty parent volunteers, led by Chairs Sandy and Elsie McAdoo P’02, P’05 made calls and wrote notes to fellow parents throughout the year asking for their support. We would like to extend our sincere thanks to the McAdoo’s for leading the Parents Group Fund for the past three years and to all parent volunteers whose combined efforts raised important funds in support of our students.
