Major Gifts

A well-developed major gifts program allows independent schools to move forward significant strategic initiatives outside of a capital campaign. Major gifts are donor-directed, larger-scale gifts in support of transformative programming and big ideas, and they are made in addition to Wildwood Fund gifts.

Like capital gifts, major gifts are often paid out over multiple years. Recent major gifts have funded significant enhancements to the elementary library, created the Outreach Center Fellowship program providing faculty professional development, established the Site Acquisition Fund, and the Kramer Family Fund for Experiential Equity. To learn more about Wildwood's major gifts program, contact Kristin Hampton, director of institutional advancement, at khampton@wildwood.org or (310) 943-5312.
