The WEDS Fund

At West End Day School, Every Gift Tells A Story.

Every day at West End Day School tells a story—of discovery, confidence, and growth. When a child walks through our doors, they are met by a team that already believes in them. In this environment, hesitation becomes confidence and challenges turn into opportunities for resilience and success.

Your gift makes these stories possible. Tuition alone cannot sustain the depth of academic, counseling, and social-emotional support that defines a WEDS education. The WEDS Fund bridges that gap—ensuring every child is seen, understood, and given the tools to thrive.

Thank you for helping us write the next chapter.

Leadership Support

Leadership giving shapes the story of West End Day School—fueling the programs, innovation, and care that help every child grow with confidence. Your generosity ensures that each student’s story continues to unfold with possibility.

Thank you for making WEDS part of your philanthropic story.

We are grateful to the following donors for their leadership support of the 2025–2026 WEDS Fund campaign:

How to Secure a Match From Your Employer:

  1. Make your gift to the WEDS Fund.
  2. Search your employer’s matching gift portal (often found on your company’s HR or intranet site).
  3. Submit the matching request. You’ll typically need:

    The name: Childrens Day Treatment Center & School, Inc. (DBA: West End Day School)
    Our address: 255 West 71st Street, New York, NY, 10023
    Our EIN/Tax ID: 13-0776140
     
  4. Let us know once you’ve submitted the request so we can confirm it when it arrives. 

(If you’re not sure whether your employer participates, simply ask your HR team—many companies do, even if they don’t widely advertise it.)

Does your company have a matching gift program?

Matching gifts are a great way to significantly increase your level of support to WEDS. Many corporations will match employees’ gifts or their spouses’ gifts to their schools. For example, if you donate $5,000 to WEDS, your employer may be willing to match your generosity and you will be credited with a $10,000 gift to the Annual Fund. Contact your human resources department to learn about your company’s matching gift policies and procedures.

This gift will be matched by my employer.required
