Why We Give

  • *Shorter-Lawrence Family (Jack '20)

    AIS Vienna is a warm, student-centered environment where the entire team is dedicated to helping Jack and all students find their passion and setting them up for future success. We give because we want to support that for the next generation.

  • Gabor Family (Bianka '29 and Mirabel '29)

    We give to AISV, because we would like to contribute to our common journey to excellence in all ways we can. We are convinced that all monetary gifts will be smartly used for the benefit of our future: the students. In particular, we would like to show our appreciation for such outstanding innovations as the Elementary School Science Lab.

  • Jones Family (Branson '20 and Delaney '22)

    We gave because AIS Vienna has been and continues to be a transformative force in the lives of our family. We are proud to be a part of the AISV faculty and the broader community. We look forward to seeing how the school evolves in the years ahead.

  • *Detrick Family (Wm. Hadley '18, Lucie '20)

    Our family gives for three reasons.

    First, Wm. Hadley '18 and Lucie '20 thrived as AIS Vienna High School students. They built life-long friendships, explored their academic interests and graduated with the confidence and capabilities required to succeed in top-notch US colleges.

    Second, as parents, Kirsten and Herb witnessed, first-hand, the commitment and dedication of AISV faculty and administrators to child-centered learning.

    Finally, as a member of the Executive Board for 4 years, Kirsten saw how helpful extra financial support can be to our school, especially now, as AISV enters the next decades of growth and accomplishment.

    In summary, our family's gift is a "thank you" to a great school with a proud history...and a very bright future ahead.
