GFA Giving Day is back for its fifth year!
We’re inviting the entire GFA community to go All in for GFA to help us raise $1,002,025. Every gift made on Giving Day supports the people, places, and programs that define a GFA education—and this year, every gift is also a tribute to a century of impact.
Let’s make this a Giving Day to remember!
This year, you can make your gift go even further with these matching gifts:
- All gifts will be matched 1:1 by the Board of Trustees, up to $202,500
- 50 grandparent gifts will unlock a $10,000 donation
- 75 alumni gifts will unlock $15,000 from the Alumni Council
- All gifts from parents of alumni will be matched 1:1, up to $20,000
Questions about sending your gift later or another way (check, DAF, IRA, stock, etc.)? Please contact Lauren Weller at lweller@gfacademy.org.
As we tally up the final gifts—including an incredibly generous $24 donation from one of our amazing first graders—we want to extend our heartfelt thanks to everyone who gave and helped us reach far beyond our Centennial Giving Day goal. Stay tuned for the final total...

As we prepare to celebrate Giving Day 2025, we invite you to pause and reflect on what this year truly represents: 100 years of teaching and learning at GFA.
Since 1925, generations of students, families, and faculty have shaped this school into a place where relationships matter most and where bold ideas take root. Our Centennial is not just a milestone—it’s a moment to honor how far we’ve come and consider how we’ll carry that legacy forward.
From The Bolton School to Beachside Avenue, the spirit of “Each for All” has guided us every step of the way. Let's make history together.
