About

For 36 hours each year, we join together as a community to support the students and staff of Carolina Friends and to celebrate our philanthropic community by making gifts and pledging service to community organizations all across the state, country, and globe. 

Any gift made, of any amount, will also be matched with an additional $100, thanks to a generous group of matching gift partners!  

With your support, we've surpassed our goal of 350 donors, unlocking $15,000 for Carolina Friends!  And, since we've been, in the words of Upper School Chemistry Teacher Spencer Ware "on fire" and surpassed 450 donors, we've unlocked an additional $10,000.  Now, our generous matching gift partners are so excited by the community’s support that they’ve extended another opportunity to unlock $15,000 in additional support!  

When we reach 550 donors, our matching partners will celebrate our community's philanthropy by contributing an additional $15,000 to the School! 

Our matching partners pledged an additional $10,000 gift which our community earned when we collectively pledged 100 hours of service!  Now, our partners are challenging us to reach 150 service pledges: An additional $5,000 that will be released to Carolina Friends when our community has made or surpassed 150 service pledges.  

Please consider clicking this link and pledging service at a community organization of your choice!
