  • Jalen Brunson '15 & Ali Marks Brunson '14

    “We are proud to partner with the Stevenson Foundation and our alma mater -- a place that was integral to our growth in many ways. Supporting the Stevenson Foundation is one way we can help secure a better future for young people who just need an opportunity. We hope that our support will create a spark for students to fulfill their dreams and will inspire fellow graduates to join us in this effort.”

  • Mindy Abern '99

    “Stevenson provided me not only with an exceptional education, but also with a lasting foundation for leadership and a deep sense of community. As an alum and current SHS parent, I am proud to support the Stevenson Foundation so the next generation can receive the same educational excellence, and experience the same opportunities, sense of community, and inspiration that shaped my own life.”

  • Stacey Dewitt Hersh '94

    “Attending Stevenson High School was an absolutely amazing and foundational chapter in my life, instilling skills and confidence that continue to serve me now. I feel it's our responsibility to invest in today's students so they can have equally impactful and successful experiences.”

  • Matt DuFour '96

    “FDR said, ‘The test of our progress is not whether we add more to the abundance of those who have much; it is whether we provide enough for those who have too little.’ This quote was one of my father’s favorites and we talked about it many times over my lifetime. I’m passionate about supporting the Foundation because their work embodies the spirit of that quote and shows Stevenson’s commitment to preparing ALL of its students for success, which I know would have made my dad proud.”

  • Carl Evans '03

    “The Foundation helped reconnect me with my fellow alumni and the broader SHS community. Foundation communications have kept me informed and created opportunities to network with alumni...beyond social media. Participating in events and supporting the Foundation's programs gives me a tremendous sense of connection to the SHS legacy of excellence we've all benefitted from!”

  • Tony Giannini '96

    “Staying connected to our SHS Alumni community allows me to give back to a foundational educational experience that has prepared me to achieve my personal and professional aspirations. At times, I reflect on the impact SHS alumni are having in their communities and how we can maximize that opportunity for all SHS students. I hope fellow graduates will consider contributing to the Foundation and be inspired by today's students' accomplishments and the changes they will make in the world. What better charitable investment can you make than the future of a Stevenson student in need?”

  • Karen Gillis Walsh '84

    “Stevenson played such a big part in shaping the person I’ve become, and I’m grateful for that every day. So I was surprised to learn that many of today’s students arrive at school hungry, worry about money at home, and juggle adult responsibilities. No teenager should have to carry that kind of weight. Giving to the Foundation feels like the least I can do to help make sure every student feels seen, supported, and able to focus on being a kid.”

  • Tom Halford '75

    “My high school years, and the friendships made then, mean a great deal to me….I hope my annual contributions will help the Foundation continue doing what it already does—help under-resourced students make the very most of their high school years.”

  • Sahil Jain '13

    “My time at Stevenson High School was a formative experience that I will always cherish. The Foundation’s mission and ongoing success is a testament to the community’s inclusive spirit, and dedication to all its members – regardless of socioeconomic circumstances. I’m proud to support such a wonderful organization and team.”

  • Sydni Joseph '17

    “I hope to bring fellow alumni back to Stevenson to further the Foundation’s initiatives for students. My goal is to connect with recent graduates and keep them close to the Stevenson community, including both past and present students, families, faculty, and staff.”

  • Sharie King Hunziker '81

    “As an alumna of Stevenson, I knew I wanted to give back to the SHS community – both financially and by volunteering my time. I’m proud of the work the Foundation does to help financially-fragile students and their families. Through the Stevenson to College program, we’re building a better Stevenson and changing the trajectory of students’ lives. I look forward to seeing the success of our students as they graduate college and begin their careers.”

  • Andrew Klaber '00

    “Stevenson is unparalleled in preparing its graduates for an increasingly competitive world. My support of the Foundation allows me to say ‘thank you’ to the teachers and classmates who inspired me as a student – and continue to inspire me today. If each alumnus does their part to give back, our school will remain a beacon of opportunity for generations of Patriots to come.”

  • Kristin Kosmin Baumann '03

    “At Stevenson, I made lifelong friendships, found mentors who believed in me, and developed the skills and confidence to step into the world prepared for anything. The fact that so many of today's students face financial challenges that make it hard to fully enjoy that same experience inspires me to give back. Supporting the Foundation is my way of making sure every Patriot feels supported, included, and able to take advantage of all SHS has to offer.”

  • Mosheh Oinounou '00

  • Dana Ramagnano Carris '86 & Tom Carris '86

    “Some of our fondest memories come from our years at Stevenson. When we got married, we knew we wanted to raise our children in this community and give them the same exceptional education we received. As real estate brokers, giving back to the community we serve has always been important to us — and there’s no better place to do that than through the school that shaped so much of our lives. Supporting the Foundation not only directly benefits the students, but it also strengthens the spirit of community that makes Stevenson so special.”

  • Al Scaletta '79

    “Stevenson is more than just a place of learning—it’s a foundation for life. The lessons I learned from dedicated teachers and the friendships I built with classmates shaped who I am today. Because of the profound impact Stevenson had on me, I want to give back to today’s young adults who are experiencing  the same tradition of quality education and strong character. The Foundation’s influence lasts far beyond the classroom—it lives in the lives we lead and the communities we build.”

  • Troy Tarr '87

    What Stevenson provided me was more than just a great education. I received invaluable guidance from teachers who embraced that I was a social kid who needed an extra pat on the back and structure. It gave me a foundation of accountability, drive, and motivation and truly laid the groundwork for me to be successful in my sales leadership career. My memories are fond, the friendships endure, and now watching my son thrive and engage with teachers and coaches that still show up for students, is incredible. I'm happy to contribute so that all Patriots can have an exceptional experience that they will hold onto through their lives as well.

  • David Winokur ’02

    “Apart from the incredible academic foundation, Stevenson fostered an environment where I could have the confidence to think critically, challenge the status quo, and not be afraid of failure. Stevenson shaped who I am and prepared me to embrace life’s unpredictability — I contribute so that even more students are able to experience this wonderful place.”
