CELEBRATING THE SUCCESS OF FUTUREMAKERS
THANK YOU
On June 30, 2021 FutureMakers: The Campaign for Rivers came to a close. We surpassed our collective philanthropic expectations, raising more than $67 million, well above the original campaign goal of $50 million. The credit for that goes to each of you. Through your generosity, you have played a fundamental role in shaping the future for our students, our teachers, our school, and our world. Thank you for your support and your investment in the next generation of leaders.

Thank you for your support and your investment in the next generation of leaders.
The funds raised have allowed us to advance our facilities, increase our endowment, enhance programs, and grow our most critical source of unrestricted operating support, The Rivers Fund. Just as today’s students benefit from the generosity of past donors, tomorrow’s students will benefit from yours.
Every gift and every donor made a difference. This year The Rivers Fund reached new heights in alumni and parent participation this year--37% and 92% respectively--surpassing $3m for the first time in school history!
Together we look forward to a future full of promise.
