The power of a committed community
In 2015 – 2016, the CHS community came together to support the highly successful closing of the A World of Opportunity campaign in support of the new senior school Athletics Centre and Manrell Hall.
A huge thank you goes out to all our Crofton House parents, past parents, grandparents and alumnae for their incredible generosity in helping us complete this campaign— so integral to the transformation of our school. The total amount raised by the A World of Opportunity campaign concluded at more than $ 25 million.
This year also saw the same spirit of generosity and engagement from our new CHS parents, with a remarkable 98 percent participation in New Parents’ Appeal which contributed to the capital campaign.
In 2015 – 2016, two marquee events also demonstrated the power of our committed Crofton House community:
• Our amazing Gala Celebration 2016, the first in eight years, paid tribute to the generous CHS community and incredible achievements realized through the A World of Opportunity campaign. With more than 700 Crofton parents attending, the Gala was a tremendous success. A heartfelt thank you to Lisa Dalton and Susan Chow, co-chairs of the Gala Committee, and the support of a legion of committed committee members and parent volunteers.
• The 19th Annual Golf Classic – a sellout event – drew parents, alumnae and friends together for a day of fun. In 2012, the Parent Golf Committee pledged to raise $ 1 million for the new Senior School Athletics Centre. Thanks to the resounding generosity of our CHS community, the $ 230,000 raised this year through this single event saw that major milestone not only achieved, but exceeded.
These and other successes in 2015 – 2016 showcase the strength of our very inspired CHS community.
