The Willard Annual Fund ("WAF") was established in 2009/2010 in response to District
budget cuts threatening to negatively impact Willard Elementary programs, particularly
our International Baccalaureate (IB) Programme. WAF provides a critical function by
funding personnel and supporting programs which would not otherwise exist due to budget cuts.

For the 2022-2023 school year, our goal is to raise $70,000 to sustain the science program. 
Throughout the year, we will have different events and initiatives to meet our goal. See below for some upcoming events where you can support our Annual Fund.

VOLUNTEERING
Fundraising takes a village. From creative ideas to physical work, there is never a
shortage of things that need to be done. Currently, the annual fund committee has two
people, but we’re keen to grow our Annual Fund Team. If you would like to join us and
take additional responsibilities, please reach out.
We also need volunteers to help set up and run events, so even if you can’t take on a
long term voluntary position, but would still like to help out when you can please send an
e-mail to willardannualfund@gmail.com and we can add you to the mailing list for
volunteer opportunities.

DONATING
The easiest way to make an impact is to set up a recurring monthly donation. To meet
our target this year all we need is for every family to donate $150. That’s just 0.83c per
school day. That’s a recurring donation of $12.50 per month.
We understand it’s not possible for all our families to donate this way so we ask you
support WAF where you can by coming to our events and participating in our initiatives
like Free-dress Fridays.
To set up a recurring donation or a one-off donation please use the button at the top of
the page. All donations are tax deductible.

There are three ways to donate:
- Drop off your donation at the Willard School Main Office;
- Donate by mail: 351 S. Hudson Avenue, Room 153, Pasadena, CA 91101 (Make
check payable to Willard Annual Fund or Willard AF); or
- Donate online http://weblink.donorperfect.com/Willard

Thank you to all the families who support Willard and make our school an engaging
learning environment for our children!
