The Fund for Avon

At Avon Old Farms, we are dedicated to educating boys to become men of integrity, scholarship, and leadership. Achieving this mission requires more than tuition alone—it depends on the generosity of our community.

 

 

The Fund for Avon helps to bridge the gap between tuition and the full cost of an Avon education, ensuring we maintain Mrs. Riddle’s vision of creating an oasis for boys. Your gift directly impacts:

  • Academic Support – Enhancing learning experiences and providing essential resources.
  • Financial Aid – Ensuring deserving students have access to an Avon education.
  • Campus Improvements – Maintaining and enhancing our beautiful campus.
  • Areas of Greatest Need – Providing flexibility to address the school’s most pressing priorities.

Every contribution, no matter the size, strengthens our mission, upholds Avon’s traditions, and fuels innovation.

Make a difference with a gift today! The Fund for Avon closes each year on June 30.
