You Make it Possible
At Canterbury School, every gift helps create a transformative student experience.
As an independent school, we rely on the generosity of our community, parents, alumni, grandparents, faculty, and friends to sustain and enhance the exceptional education we provide. Your support fuels academic innovation, artistic expression, athletic achievement, and character development across all divisions. Together, we ensure Canterbury continues to inspire, challenge, and prepare students for lives of purpose and impact
Opportunities to Support Canterbury
Canterbury Fund
Extravaganza
Extravaganza is Canterbury’s signature fundraiser, supporting programs, faculty, and financial aid through a night of dinner, auctions, and entertainment.
Cougar Classic
The Cougar Classic Golf Tournament is a fun-filled annual event that brings our community together to support Canterbury’s students and programs.
Planned Giving
When you include Canterbury School in your estate plan, your generosity supports academic excellence within a caring and supportive community.
In a fast-paced world; you enter through the doors of Canterbury and you immediately relax and know this is your safe place. Canterbury provides a place for our kids to learn, be recognized and grow. We know that every dollar counts for non-profit organizations. These are only a few of the reasons why we donate to the Canterbury Fund. We love being a Cougar family!
