Give back. Rally your team. Show Buxton Pride!

Buxton Gives is a community fundraising challenge celebrating the people, experiences, and connections that make Buxton unique. We're bringing together alumni, parents, families, staff, students, Trustees, and friends for one important purpose: supporting Buxton as we move boldly into our next century.

This friendly competition brings the Buxton community together to raise funds, inspire participation, and show our school pride. Everyone who donates or raises $250 or more will receive an exclusive Buxton Gives T-shirt!

Join a team, rally your network, and help generate vital support for Buxton School. The campaign runs through Friday, October 23.

The Challenge is Simple

Step 1: Join Your Team

Select "Join A Team" and choose the team that represents your connection to Buxton. Alumni will compete by decades based on graduation year, with teams for current and former parents, current or former Trustees, faculty and staff, and friends of the Buxton community.

Step 2: Tell Your Buxton Story

Once you've joined a team, follow the prompts to create your personal fundraising page and share what Buxton means to you. Maybe it's a teacher who changed your life, a friendship that has lasted for decades, an unforgettable All-School Trip, or seeing your child find a place where they could truly be themselves. Your story is what will inspire others to participate.

Step 3: Give & Rally Your People

Kick off your campaign with a personal gift of your own. Then share your page with family and friends. Send a text. Write an email. Share an old photo. Challenge a classmate. See below for samples.

Every gift counts. Every donor moves your team forward. And every person who participates helps strengthen Buxton for what comes next.
