Thank you for your interest in supporting the work of the Chewonki Foundation. Constituent support from the wonderfully diverse Chewonki community is what sustains the strength and quality of all our programs. With your help we can keep all aspects of Chewonki vibrant and healthy.
Your contributions make a world of difference to each of our programs! Unrestricted dollars bridge the inevitable gap between tuition income and the real costs of running our organization. As you will see on the donation form, there are opportunities to designate your contribution to a particular program or to a specific endowment fund. Your gifts can support our financial aid program and all the necessary expenses of teaching, learning, and providing memorable experiences in Camp (whether for boys on Chewonki Neck or our new camp for girls on Fourth Debsconeag Lake), on a Wilderness Expedition, in the Maine Coast Semester, or in the many programs of our Center for Environmental Education. The great learning that takes place on Chewonki Neck, on the waters and islands of the Maine Coast, and in the vast North Woods, is enriched in so many ways by your generosity.
Gifts in honor of loved ones for the holidays or to celebrate milestones such as birthdays and graduations are gratefully received. If you have specific requests of this kind, please note them in the Comments box towards the bottom of the on-line form. Please don’t hesitate to call us with your requests if this is easier for you.
Help us raise $275,000 by August 31, 2008, and you will make an indelible mark on the future of Chewonki, the growth of individual students, and ultimately on the preservation of our planet.

Director of Development
