I have some very exciting news to share with you.

As a result of the success we have enjoyed on the Annual Fund participation over the previous two years, we were able to apply for and were awarded a significant grant from a foundation supporting education.

This year, Riverstone will receive $10,000 towards its Annual Fund IF we continue to achieve over a 90% participation rate by our community. The grant also provides an additional $10,000 to be used towards new technology.

The foundation wishes to remain anonymous, but this generous and significant grant highlights the importance of the whole school community contributing to the Annual Fund. So long as we maintain a high participation rate on Annual Fund, we will be able to apply for additional funding from foundations that support Riverstone’s educational philosophy.

Please give generously to the 2009/2010 Annual Fund. Your gift allows us to close our operating deficit in a tax-exempt way and it also allows the school to apply for additional outside funding that goes directly to supporting the education of you child.

With warm regards

Andrew Derry
