Riverdale's Giving Day 2023

Riverdale’s Annual Fund is essential to closing the gap between operating expenses and funds from tuition and endowment income. Annual Fund support provides funding for increased financial aid, experiential education opportunities, curricular and co-curricular development, faculty professional development, the maintenance of two campuses, and so much more.

While your donation is appreciated at any time of year, making your gift on Giving Day makes a significant impact! A Giving Day Gift helps Riverdale secure additional generous funding in the form of challenge and matching gifts. It is also an opportunity to participate in an event that demonstrates collective support of Riverdale.

That would be wonderful! To help Riverdale earn a challenge gift of $150,000, your additional donation will count toward our goal of 150 donors for Giving Day.

Gifts of all sizes are greatly appreciated by the Riverdale community. In the past, we have received gifts ranging from $5 to $100,00. It’s the collective support from parents, alumni, faculty and staff, and friends that makes the biggest impact.

This year, our Board of Trustees will be using a portion of the Annual Fund to create a scholarship honoring Dominic A.A. Randolph’s time as head of school. This will have a direct and immediate impact on the Riverdale student body, as 1 in 5 Riverdale students receive financial aid. The Annual Fund has always been used, in part, to contribute to the financial aid program, and this newly-created scholarship in Dominic Randolph’s name will provide additional and meaningful funds for our student body.

The Development Office is happy to answer any questions you might have. You can reach Anna Genoese, Assistant Director of Annual Giving and Development Operations at 718-519-2749 or by email at [email protected].
