Our Work at The Carey School
The Carey School is an independent day school in San Mateo, California, with 294 students enrolled from Preschool through Fifth grade.
I began working with them in the spring of 2018 as their capital campaign counsel. Together, we completed the quiet phase of their $5 million capital campaign, with the launch of the community phase that fall.
My work with The Carey School was focused on building their capacity by training and supporting their professional and volunteer team and developing cultivation and solicitation strategies to maximize their efforts.
It was a pleasure to be retained again in the summer of 2024 to prepare the school and its Board for a capital campaign.
