York School Advancement Office

Our vision is an academically excellent, diverse, and welcoming community of creative, independent thinkers that is well-resourced, financially sustainable, and known, understood, and enthusiastically supported by the community.

Mission: We provide the opportunity for donors to change lives and touch the future through philanthropy. We develop, nurture, and sustain friendships by telling the York story, keeping alumni connected, and personalizing the York experience.

Values: We practice donor-centered fundraising. We conduct our relationships with integrity and adhere to the Association of Fundraising Professionals’ Donor Bill of Rights. We are committed to York’s mission, to supporting teaching and learning at York, and to bringing tangible benefits to York. We are motivated by the opportunity to contribute to an outstanding experience for all York students. We are dedicated to making York’s commitment to financial aid and diversity possible. 
  

Strategy: We advance York’s mission by providing ethical and professional fundraising, donor relations, alumni relations, communications, and events to the York community. In partnership with donors, we enhance the academic program, athletics, the arts, facilities, faculty development, and financial aid at York.
