Green + Blue Loyalty Society
Williston Northampton School depends on the loyalty of its community members. Your support every year—at any level—is crucial to our success. The Green and Blue Society recognizes donors who have given to the Williston Northampton Fund for two or more consecutive years. Sustaining donors who contribute recurring monthly or yearly gifts become members of the Green and Blue Society immediately.
Elm Tree Society
The Elm Tree Society honors those individuals whose generous legacy gifts will support Williston Northampton beyond their lifetimes. Planned gifts to the Williston Northampton School include bequests, life income arrangements, and other deferred gifts.
