CONCHtribution 2026

In 2026 we are inviting The Island School alumni community to be part of something big, where winning The Golden Conch award will take on new meaning!

This year, we are celebrating a special edition of CONCHtribution, honoring Chris and Pam Maxey’s founding vision and legacy as we launch the Rising TIDE Campaign. As you make your gift in pursuit of the Golden Conch award, you'll have a chance to direct your support towards future students:

• Give to the Maxey Scholarship Endowment Fund
  • A gift to the Maxey Scholarship Endowment Fund helps ensure future generations of students can pursue opportunities at The Island School. Named in honor of Chris and Pam’s legacy and founding vision, this permanent scholarship fund is invested with the Cape Eleuthera Foundation and a portion of annual earnings supports scholarships each year. This opportunity allows your gift to have a multi-generational impact.

• Give to the Osprey Opportunity Fund
  • A gift to the Osprey Opportunity Fund puts your gift to work right away in our Annual Fund, funding scholarship partnerships and supporting deserving students worldwide. Every gift to our Annual Fund, no matter the size, helps expand access to programs and opportunities at The Island School.

No matter how you choose to make your gift, your support will expand opportunities for future deserving students from all over the world, and celebrate the alumni and families whose lives were shaped by the Maxey's enduring belief in leadership effecting change.

We expect class competition to be as high as ever! Now, it's your turn to give back in Chris and Pam's honor and help shape the future of all students who will someday embark on their own Island School journeys.
