REUNION: Walker Bell Challenge
The Walker Bell Challenge
Join us in ringing the Walker Bell. Help take care of Thacher, so Thacher may take care of everything and everyone who rely upon it.
Give back and have an impact at Thacher.
Become an advocate and show your support today!
Reunion weekend is Thacher’s most important alumni event. It offers us an opportunity to reconnect with one another and the School and to reaffirm our shared values. There will be alternative celebrations on campus to mark this important milestone for classes ending in 0 and 5. It is our hope that we can have two reunion weekends in June 2021.

In addition to the ongoing needs of the Annual Fund, the Thacher board and administration have committed to:
- creating a meaningful online education community for our students
- increasing financial aid to address additional needs of families whose circumstances have changed
- taking care of staff members whose livelihoods would otherwise be threatened when students are not on campus, including maintenance and food service workers
- putting measures in place to bring students back to campus safely as soon as we're able
This commitment is generous. It's costly. It’s also the right thing to do, and is necessary to live our mission and values fully, and to preserve Thacher for future generations.
Let's ring the bell and answer this call together. In honor of your Reunion milestone still happening this year, please answer the call of the Walker Bell and make your best gift yet to Thacher. Every gift, no matter the size, has an incredible impact on our School and community. Let's ring the bell, and answer this call together. Thank you so much for your support!
Don't miss the opportunity to see Thacher's virtual campus and community in action this week, too! Click here to view the week's schedule and links for Assembly, fitness classes, faculty discussions, and more.

Thacher has always been about the people. It still is. Now, more than ever, Thacher needs you. Your community needs you. When you make a gift to the Thacher Annual Fund through the Walker Bell Challenge, gifts of any size will help unlock special gifts for the financial aid program put forth by a group of anonymous donors.
Thank you so much for your support!

Help spread the word and encourage others to join you:
- Share about the Walker Bell Challenge on Facebook or Twitter
- Post on Instagram or Facebook: you or a loved one wearing Thacher gear or share an on-campus memory. Tag a faculty member with a message of gratitude, or share well-wishes for the Class of 2020.
- Don’t forget a hashtag: #walkerbell #thebestwecando #thacher #toadstogether
Tag @thethacherschool and @thachercdep in your post so we can repost it.
