John Burroughs School Naming Opportunities

Burroughs is pleased to accept contributions at all levels. Undertaking an effort as ambitious as this Master Plan will require the support of the entire JBS community, so no gift is too small to help us reach our goals.

Our alumni and parents have asked that we develop specific naming opportunities for gifts to components of the Master Plan, and at various levels. If you ever thought you might like to do something for Burroughs, we encourage you to contact us. To make a gift or pledge to support the Master Plan, please click here for our Online Giving form. You can also contact Jim Kemp via e-mail or at 1-800-264 4045 x256 with questions, or to gather more information, or to discuss a gift or a way that you might be able to help Burroughs implement its Master Plan.
