On November 6, we’re inviting the entire Wyndcroft community to come together for the Fall 2025 WhirlWynd Day of Giving and work a little magic for our faculty and students—because when we unite, the magic truly happens!
How can I participate? Make a gift to The Wyndcroft Fund - your participation is what matters for WhirlWynd! Our goal is 300 donors in 24 hours.
Your gift goes further today than any other day of the year - the Wyndcroft Board of Trustees is matching every dollar donated today, dollar for dollar, up to $60,000. The more you give, the more the Board gives!
Why does participation matter? Participation is at the heart of the Wyndcroft experience. Whether on the Quidditch pitch, center stage, or in the classroom, our students discover their own kind of magic through every opportunity to get involved. They shine in ways they might never have imagined—simply because they were given the chance to try. It’s no wonder that Wyndcroft graduates go on to become leaders, captains, and stars in college and beyond. Quite simply, their magic never ceases to amaze us!
These opportunities for self-discovery are made possible by the Wyndcroft Fund. It provides the financial resources that help our students pursue their passions, expand their understanding of the world, and discover a wealth of positive new experiences every day.
Today we're inviting our entire Wyndcroft community to celebrate the power of Non Sibi. When you become a WhirlWynd donor today, you are setting a remarkable example for our students, showing them the power, possibility and joy of giving to something bigger than oneself.
💙🎓💛Alumni Challenge!💛🎓💙
Calling All Alumni! The House Cup is on the line, and it’s your turn to join the fray! Our current students battled fiercely in an epic game of Quidditch (check out the magic on our social media!), but the final victory rests in the hands of our alumni.
From 7 PM to 9 PM, every gift made by alumni donors to Team Blue or Team Gold will earn points for their House. These points will be added to the Quidditch totals, and the team with the most points at 9 PM will be crowned the 2025 WhirlWynd House Champion!
$1 - $99 = 10 points
$100 - $499 = 20 points
$500 - $999 = 30 points
$1000 + = 50 points
