Every Gift Makes a Difference!
Your donation, regardless of size will support Trousdale school in the following key areas:
1. Strengthen Our Programs
Your generosity fuels everything we do. As a privately funded nonprofit, we rely on donors like you to keep our programs strong and accessible. Your gift ensures each student receives personalized instruction and support—meeting them where they are and helping them grow toward greater independence. Through your support of the Annual Fund, you make it possible for us to offer exceptional curriculum, enriching year-round programming, and meaningful experiences for every student we serve.
2. Ensure Sustainable Growth
Because of you, students who depend on scholarships can continue to learn, work, and thrive. More than 70% of our students rely on financial assistance, and your contributions to the Annual Fund make that possible. Your support helps cover vital operational needs, sustain vocational training, and expand our academic and life-skills programs—so every student has the opportunity to reach their potential.
3. Invest in our Future
Thanks to your partnership, we can dream big about what’s next. As we celebrate 20 years of impact, we’re looking ahead to welcoming more students, growing our vocational training program, and helping families find long-term residential solutions. Your investment in the Annual Fund builds the foundation for the next 20 years—creating a future full of growth, opportunity, and hope.
