LWHS is proud to announce a new $1.5 million endowed scholarship fund that will provide lasting support for the school's Flexible Tuition program. This incredible gift comes from a donor who has asked to remain anonymous and whose generosity will impact generations of Tigers.

Every year, this endowment will fund the equivalent of one full scholarship—forever.

Lick-Wilmerding already offers some of the highest financial aid among SF independent schools, with 33% of students receiving support. This new fund makes our commitment to accessible education even stronger.

Our diverse community is what makes LWHS special. Students from all backgrounds bring different perspectives that make our classrooms richer and our learning deeper. This gift helps ensure we will continue welcoming motivated and curious students regardless of their family's financial situation. The donor family shared:

"We are excited for LWHS to continue to empower bright young minds to dream bigger, learn deeper, and lead the world forward. We hope our contribution helps future students discover the same sense of purpose and possibility our children found at LWHS." 

As LWHS celebrates its 130th anniversary and looks ahead to the next chapter of our school’s history, endowment gifts like this one ensure that every student, present and future, benefits from exceptional teaching and a unique school experience that continues to evolve and inspire.
