Our Annual Fund

EBI’s Annual Fund, “[email protected] en Sinergia,” is our major annual fundraising effort that helps us to fund the gap between tuition revenue and operating expenses, and empowers us to continually invest in our programs, our staff, our community and our children.

You can fill out our online Annual Fund pledge card or make your donation online today. Some companies will match your donation to our school. Find out here if your employer has a matching program.

Thank you for generously supporting our school and our mission!

2021 Fund-a-Need

Each year EBI’s “Fund-a-Need” helps support a specific effort at our school that directly enhances the student’s learning environment. We are grateful for the tremendous participation from our community each year in this facet of the annual gala and auction.

All funds raised from your contributions will go directly towards the EBI Relief and Support Fund (R&SF), which will be used to support our financial aid programs (tuition assistance and diversity fund), as well as professional development, and ongoing school operations during the pandemic.

Our Diversity Fund

EBI’s Diversity Fund is aligned with our mission and reinforces our commitment to diversity, inclusion and multiculturalism by reducing financial barriers for families and promoting diversity-related programs.While it is primarily intended to supplement our established tuition assistance program, it also funds diversity-related workshops, events and projects that enhance our community and inspire our students.

Thank You for Your Support

Each year, EBI’s families, friends, alumni and Board of Trustees support our mission by making financial contributions to the school above and beyond tuition. These additional resources allow us to provide an exceptional experience for every EBI student. More than anything else, your philanthropy inspires our vision for tomorrow and allows us to continually improve our school.

We are truly grateful to our donors for their commitment to EBI. They may not realize it, but each time someone makes a gift to EBI they are saying “thank you.” Whether it is a gift from a thankful alumni or a grateful parent, when a family chooses to donate to EBI they are demonstrating their gratitude for the hard work our faculty and staff are doing everyday.
