Your support elevated our ability to positively impact our students, staff, programs, and community.
In January 2015, Riverstone International School embarked upon a two-year campaign to build an endowment called “Navigating Forward.” The need for this essential campaign was identified as a priority during strategic planning.
Through the generous support of our community, we were able to secure this transformation opportunity and further Riverstone’s mission and the education that our current — and future — students experience.
We raised more than $1,000,000, unlocking a grant from the Malone Family Foundation of $2,000,000. These funds ensure that Riverstone has the resources to continue educating students in an engaging, innovative, relevant, and meaningful manner long into the future.
We continue to accept contributions to our endowment fund. Thank you for considering a tax-deductible donation today to secure the future for Riverstone and students. Please contact [email protected] for more information.

The Riverstone International School Endowment will be comprised of three elements:

Fund for Excellence
Your support of the Fund for Excellence will provide funding to ensure excellence and continual improvement of our students’ educational experience:
- Advance the vision and initiatives presented in strategic planning
- Enhance faculty development and compensation
- Strengthen the programs that the school offers
- Improve access for more students to attend Riverstone International School
Fund for Capital Improvements
Your support of the Fund for Capital Improvement will enable the school to thoughtfully address facilities needs and improvements that are supported in strategic planning.

What will your legacy be?
Gifts that are made as part of your estate plan are known as planned giving. These gifts can provide future support to the school while having valuable tax benefits to you as the donor.
There are a variety of avenues to approach planned giving; we are happy to help identify options that would be mutually beneficial to you and the school.
If you are interested in making a planned gift to the school, you or your financial advisor can contact [email protected].
Make a donation in memory of, or in tribute to, a loved one.
We are honored to receive and gratefully accept contributions made in memory of, or in tribute to, loved ones. The daily experiences of our students are enhanced by your generosity and thoughtfulness.
When we receive memorial or tribute gifts, we notify the family or recipient that a gift has been made and provide the donor with the opportunity to personalize their message.
Memorial or tribute gifts are tax-deductible.
Every day we ask our students to step up and rise to challenges. With the Annual Fund, our community has the opportunity to band together in support of their efforts. That’s why we are proud to say that nearly 100% of our board, parents, faculty, and staff give to our Annual Fund year after year in support. This month-long campaign is vital to Riverstone’s sustainability, as it enables us to fund essential educational opportunities that are not covered by tuition alone. We invite you to give as generously as you can; know that your tax-deductible gift will immediately be put to great use to help our school.
