Welcome to Purnell School's Founders' Day of Giving! 

Help Us Reach Our Goal of 100 Donors in 24 Hours!

The Purnell Fund supports the School’s most critical needs so we may attract the best and brightest faculty members, empower each girl to be herself through engaging programs, and support social and emotional development in a safe environment. A gift to the Purnell Fund makes an exceptional living and learning experience accessible to all girls, regardless of their financial circumstances. 



  

It was in December of 1963 that a not-for-profit corporation, Purnell, was established; and its founders were named (pictured left): Carroll Boynton; Lytt Gould, President; Hap Johnson, Treasurer; Sis Gould, Secretary; and Ethel Stringfellow as the corporation's original Vice President.


Your Gift Honors the Dreams of Our Founders!
