What is the Lincoln Fund? And what does my gift support? The Lincoln Fund is Lincoln School's annual fund, a crucial part of Lincoln's health and strength. Every year, contributors to the Lincoln Fund provide critical funds supporting Lincoln’s educational program. Generous Lincoln Fund donors - alumnae, parents, grandparents, faculty, staff, and other friends of the school - ensure that a Lincoln education remains accessible to our entire student body. Your gift on Daisy's Big Day will help the school to reach its Lincoln Fund goal this year.
