Major Gifts
Deep Roots,
Lasting Impact.
Our mission is rooted in the Episcopal tradition of academic excellence, spiritual inquiry, inclusion, and service. Major gifts are a profound expression of partnership in that mission, empowering us to grow with intention and courage.
These transformative contributions strengthen more than programs or facilities, they sustain a community where children are known, loved, and challenged to grow into ethical leaders and thoughtful citizens. By investing in our long-term vision, major donors help shape the future of ESN and deepen our collective impact.
Why Make a Major Gift?

Leave a Lasting Legacy: As a donor, you may receive named recognition or create endowed funds that reflect your commitment to our education and community.
Support Transformative Change: Your generosity helps shape spaces, people, and programs that prepare students for meaningful lives of purpose.
