What's a Donation Category?
Designating your pledge to the annual fund allows the school to use your donation where it's most needed; in other words, your donation is "unrestricted".
You may also want to designate all or a portion of your donation to one of these established "restricted" funds, each with a specific purpose. Contact Nicole Kelly, Director of Institutional Advancement, at nkelly@theproutschool.org or at (401) 789-9262 x 537 if you have other preferences for your donation.
