Why I Give
When my son started at Carlmont, I was impressed with the many programs available to him to set him up for success. It is reassuring to know he has access to support in his academics as well as for his mental health, should he need it.
Why I Give
Our family has prioritized financially supporting CAF because we have seen the wonderful opportunities this money provides. Both of our children have participated in instrumental music at Carlmont and CAF supports the program with funding for the second teacher.
Why I Give
We donate to CAF because as members of our community we feel we all share a responsibility in ensuring that our children get the best educational experience possible. The funding we get from the state is not enough!
Why I Give
We donate to CAF because it is an investment in our children and the entire community — for now and in the future.
Why I Give
We have been very impressed with the organization of CAF, their stewardship of our donation dollars, and we feel that investing in CAF is a great way to help support our children.

Consider a stock donation
Did you know that appreciated securities are perhaps the most cost-effective assets to use in making a gift? When you transfer ownership of long-term holdings to CAF you receive a charitable deduction for their full market value — and you incur no capital gains tax (subject to IRS deduction limits).
Advancing an excellent public high school education
CAF partners with parents, teachers, businesses and the community to enrich the educational environment for all students beyond what is possible with public dollars.
