Giving
Why Give?
Thank you for your support! It takes our entire community of parents, students, educators, alumni, and grandparents to lead our students on their journey of transformative learning experiences.
The Annual Fund
The Annual Fund is our first fundraising priority and has an immediate impact on students because these funds are used to support teaching and learning this year.
The rich personal discoveries our students make while here at Oakwood are enhanced by the collective generosity of our community, and we thank you!

The Oakwood Kitchen
The Oakwood Kitchen is our most current campaign focused on a new state-of-the-art kitchen and dining area on the secondary campus, and a new servery at the elementary campus.
This new space will not only bring together our community of students and teachers during their breaks and for social gatherings, but will also serve as a kitchen for all of the elementary campus needs starting in the fall of 2021.
The Scholarship Endowment Fund
The Scholarship Endowment Fund fundraiser will take place in the spring of 2022.
