Help Fund a New Stage Floor

Bridgforth Fund for the Arts

$6,638 of $12,000 raised

This fund is named in memory of Elizabeth Lee Bridgforth, a class of 2002 Carlisle Alumna. Elizabeth was passionate about dance and theater and Carlisle School. We invite you to support her legacy with a charitable gift to enhance the performing arts at Carlisle.

We reached our first goal of generating 37 gifts for the arts for Elizabeth’s 37th birthday, and now we are taking our challenge to the next level. We are using the funds raised to provide a new stage floor for Walker Auditorium in the Marshall Fine Arts Center. It will cost approximately $12,000 to complete this project.

Since being created by her friends and classmates, this fund has helped purchase a new stage curtain at Walker Auditorium, a new motorized projection screen and stage projector, and upgraded sound equipment for productions. Every dollar makes a difference!

Help Fund New Classroom Furnishings

Classroom Furniture Fund

$19,015 of $30,000 raised

To continue providing a state-of-the-art educational experience to train future innovators, successfully prepared college students, and exceptionally qualified future employees for the workforce, Carlisle School needs resources. One particular resource needed is new modern classroom furniture to provide an inviting and engaging classroom experience for students. Sample classroom layouts have been designed through an educational furniture consultation to incorporate high-quality and durable furnishings. Instructors can easily reconfigure the modular furniture in various ways to support classroom social distancing and develop collaboration skills. Special items like wiggle seats help active students burn energy throughout the day so that they can focus better in class. If we reach our goal of $30,000 for this project, eight classrooms can be furnished. All donations are tax-deductible, so please donate generously.
