Support The Esperanza Fund
The Esperanza Fund supports a tuition-free, all-girls, middle school education built on justice and centered in joy.
The funds raised annually empower our students to embrace their brilliance and our graduates to achieve the unimaginable. Your support touches every aspect of our school and elevates the resources and opportunities across our academic programming, graduate support, social and emotional learning, and more. With your support we can provide an academic program that is high challenge, high support, high joy. This is only possible because of the faculty and staff that support, validate and love our students. Your support allows our faculty to continue to create a transformative experience changing the trajectory of our students’ lives.
Why Esperanza?
Marty Doggett, Trustee Emeritus, Esperanza Academy and Former Head of School, Governor’s Academy, answers the question, “Why Esperanza?”
Donate through Stocks and Other Securities
Gifts of securities may be made in several ways. The most common practice is to place the securities with your broker, bank, or other agent and request that they be transferred to Esperanza Academy’s account Morgan Stanley (gift account #473-046649-008, and the school’s DTC is #0015). Esperanza Academy will then instruct the broker or agent about the sale or delivery of the security. If you plan to make a gift of securities, please notify the school about the stock you wish to donate.
Planned Giving - Creating a Legacy at Esperanza
Esperanza Academy's Legacy Circle consists of members of the community who make provisions in their estate for a gift to the school. A planned gift is an especially meaningful contribution that demonstrates your commitment and confidence in the school’s mission and values.
To make a gift through stock or discuss planned giving, please contact Pati Fernández.
