About

The Andover-Exeter Challenge Is On!


We Win as ONE!

Every gift gets Andover closer to victory. The school with the most donors wins!

Your support is a rallying cry. A stake in the ground. A Big Blue emblem of unity. When we give together, we win together—in every sense of the word.

For the Andover-Exeter Challenge, it means vanquishing our rival. (And who doesn’t want to see the Exeter lion tamed?)

Yet the power of your gift goes far beyond that. Your donation of any size fuels the Andover Fund, which helps our students WIN every day. You’ll drive their achievements in the classroom. Elevate their performances on stage. Propel their competitive spirit on the field. Most of all, you’ll help them embrace their truest and best selves.

That’s because your contribution will be tallied with those of alumni, families, and friends just like you. This combined strength enables PA to give every student the tools to succeed. We Win as ONE! And together, we make it fun!

We Thank You as ONE!

Win or lose, we are forever proud to be Andover! And this year, we came up short in the A-E Challenge. Many cheers to Exeter on their win. Rivalries like ours push both communities to be better, and we appreciate that!

Plus, there’s much more to our Big Blue story. We rallied together, and we can’t thank you and every PA donor enough for all the incredible support. Most importantly, your generosity will fuel the Andover experience for our students throughout this school year—making their lives better each and every day. That is truly amazing.

We thank you as ONE for all you’ve done!

One Hour to Go!

Time to come up clutch, Andover! There’s only one hour left in the A-E Challenge—and we need you to be there for PA.

Please show your support before time runs out. We believe in you and all things Big Blue!

Only Hours Left: Make Your Gift Right Now!

The A-E Challenge ends today at noon EST!

Let the Big Blue shout go out! Ringing down from the top of Sam Phil. Echoing across Andover Hill. Reverberating around the world.

When I say blue, you say white!
Now when I say we win, you say as one!

Let’s finish strong, PA!

Every Gift Counts! Especially Yours!

Your donation to the A-E Challenge will make the lives of our students better—and our beloved school stronger.

There’s still plenty of match opportunities available and myriad ways to make your Big Blue impact. 

We can do this, Andover! Let’s rally as ONE!

Pop Quiz, Big Blue!

Why does your gift matter—right now?

1. Without your support, Andover may lose this challenge. (And we can’t have that, can we?)

2. Your donation helps secure awesome experiences for today’s PA students.

3. Every size contribution counts. 

4. All of the above!  

Drum roll… 

It’s D! So, what’s stopping you from helping Andover tame that Exeter lion? Nothing! We win as ONE!

Let's be smart about this!

Here on Andover Hill, we’ve been doing some brilliant math during the A-E Challenge, and this is what we found:

Your 1 Gift x Our Big Blue Community = Victory!

That means your donation right now will help us crush Big Red in this year’s face-off! And create amazing opportunities for our own PA students at the same time. Talk about the perfect equation! Because when we give together, we win as ONE!
