Giving
Supporting Webb
If you ask a Webb donor why they support the school or the museum, they will often respond with a common sentiment—community. It is the heart and soul of the Webb ethos, and we are incredibly grateful that our community includes alumni, parents, and friends who give generously and selflessly year after year to support the Webb experience for today's students and future generations.
We celebrate the role philanthropy has played in our story. The dormitories, classrooms and laboratories, theaters, athletic facilities, dining hall, chapel, and faculty homes—each of these tells a tale of someone special who found a way to give back and demonstrate their values and legacy. The same is true of endowed scholarship funds, faculty development and program funds, and more. And, of course, the glue that binds together our margin of excellence each year is The Webb Fund. It helps us provide innovative and dynamic experiences for students in the classroom, on campus, in the Greater Los Angeles region, and beyond.
The Webb we know today has been built on our community's loyalty, determination, and generosity. We honor and thank each of you for your gifts, big and small, and their impact on Webb students, faculty, and staff.

Why I Give

Eri Furukawa '08
I give to Webb because my Webb experience taught me the importance of building community and leaning on my village for support. Through my work in higher education now, I see the firsthand impact that philanthropy has in providing resources to underserved communities. -

There are thousands of worthy causes… but there is only one Webb. At Webb, I grew to internalize the honor code. Later in life, when I had difficult choices to make, I let Webb’s principles be my guide. I give in hopes of giving future generations the opportunity to have those Webb values grow with them. Webb also taught me that everyone has something unique to contribute to the world. The faculty and staff of the Webb community provide every student the opportunity to excel at something they are passionate about. Whether it’s in sports, theater, academics, paleontology, the arts, or even just hanging out with friends, Webb’s environment offers multiple ways to express individuality and cooperation. -

I was lucky enough to receive a need-based scholarship that covered the majority of my tuition. I could not have attended Webb without that support, and I try to pass that gratitude on with a gift to Webb each year. Attending Webb was like starting college at the age of thirteen. Webb modeled honesty and integrity for me from a very young age, and a significant part of who I am as a person today is because of the people I met there. -

My wife and I have given to Webb annually for as long as I can remember, and I recently celebrated my 50th reunion at Webb with a five-year pledge to the Webb Fund. Looking back, my wonderful Webb teachers dedicated their lives to educating us and broadening our horizons. My great Webb experience underpinned my achieving the top GPA in my freshman year at college and it continued to support me through graduate school. Webb is the reason for my fulfilling career and life. I have sought to express my gratitude to Webb by helping new generations of students enjoy similar experiences through annual giving that supports financial aid and faculty hiring!
