Financial Aid Endowment

Seattle Girls' School passionately believes a family's personal income should not be a barrier to a quality, dynamic, and inspiring education. Our financial aid program embodies several of Seattle Girls' School's core values:  

  • Strong outreach to underrepresented communities
  • Assurance of an economically diverse student body through our commitment to providing a minimum of 30% of the students with need-based financial aid
  • Removal of barriers that may keep young women from fully achieving their potential

Seattle Girls' School must raise over $550,000 each year to meet its financial aid needs. To support this annual goal, SGS is in the process of raising $10 million for a long-term Financial Aid Endowment Fund. Through its yearly earnings, the endowment will help provide for the school's financial aid needs in perpetuity, sustaining our mission to serve a diverse population by ensuring our ongoing ability to distribute financial aid to families in need.

For more information on ways to make a significant difference in the life of Seattle Girls' School through a gift to the Financial Aid Endowment Fund, please contact please contact Christine Lessard in the Development Office at 206-709-2228 Ext. 1210.
