Endowment and Capital Giving
Ashley Hall has been the gracious benefactor of a generous community since its founding. While tuition and the Loyalty Fund cover the day-to-day experience, the School partners with donors on opportunities to further enhance and grow the School in long-term and strategic ways.
This can include a gift to the Endowment which provides the school financial stability or capital priorities that support other areas of the student experience like facilities or programming.

Planned Giving
By including Ashley Hall in your estate plans, you ensure that your commitment to the benefits of an Ashley Hall education continues. Estate gifts can be designated to support a donor’s passion at the school, but are most commonly invested to grow the school’s endowment in perpetuity. Ashley Hall’s founder, Mary Vardrine McBee, exemplified and championed the merits found in a life of value-based philanthropy. Today she is the patroness of The McBee Society, an organization of foresighted and generous donors who have included Ashley Hall in their estate plans.

At Ashley Hall, we believe that our philanthropic actions communicate who we are and what we believe in on the deepest level. They are an opportunity to harness our passions, to act on our values for the greater good, and to nourish our souls. This value is interwoven into our work with students with the desired outcome of producing young women who are “ethically responsible and prepared to meet the challenges of society,” as our mission clearly states. Fulfilling this mission would not be possible without support from the Ashley Hall Community.
