Welcome to the Family of NOLS Supporters

The global NOLS community is made up of over 100,000 alumni, their parents, NOLS staff and other friends of the school. Each year, thousands of these individuals support the school's work with a tax-deductible donation.

Every year, over 3000 people make a gift to the fund. Money donated goes straight to work—for scholarships, curriculum development, sustainability initiatives, and other vital annual expenses at the school.

In addition to guiding overall school policy, the Board provides the backbone of the school's fundraising efforts, both through their financial commitment and by volunteering their dedication, expertise and enthusiasm.

The Advisory Council is a group of between 30 and 40 individuals who support and complement the efforts of the school's staff and the Board of Trustees by offering specialized knowledge, fresh ideas, and diverse perspectives.

"NOLS puts everything in perspective—it reduces the world around you to true basics, life and nature. This was and continues to be the root of my professional career. I want to spend my time and resources making sure that it is there for others.”

In addition to making regular donations to the NOLS Annual Fund, A.J. Grant, a NOLS graduate and member of the Board of Trustees, recently joined the NOLS Summit Team, our recognition society for donors who include NOLS in their wills or long-term giving plans.
