Annual Fund
Giving back is a key value of The York School community
Since our founding in 1965, the York community has valued working together and giving back to achieve big dreams.
Your generosity plays a critical role in all this. Beyond the operating costs covered by tuition, philanthropic gifts elevate the learning experience by supporting unique classroom enhancements, specialized equipment purchases and capital investments, important wellbeing initiatives, and bursaries for promising students whose families require tuition flexibility.

Financial Assistance Bursaries and Graduating Class Bursary Campaign
The Financial Assistance Bursaries and Graduating Class Bursary Campaign offers assistance to highly promising and talented students whose families require support to cover the full cost of tuition. The York community is committed to enriching our school by welcoming diverse voices and backgrounds from across the city. Bursaries play a critical role in delivering on that commitment.
The Class of 2024 Bursary Campaign is a challenge to the graduating families of The York School to ‘pay it forward’ by raising funds to support financial assistance bursaries. If your child is a Class of ‘24 Grad, please help us achieve 100% class participation by donating to the Graduating Class of ‘24 Bursary Campaign.
