S2E2   When we hear the words “philanthropy”, “fundraising”, or even “charity”, most of us default to the act of financial giving. And while development offices on independent school campuses certainly prioritize fundraising, there is no question our community deeply honors the sentiment that we are asked to offer something even greater - to make an investment of the heart.

On this episode of Living Lovett you’ll meet Matt Gould—new to The Lovett School serving as the new Chief Advancement Officer. You’ll learn how Matt’s office furthers the goals of the Lovett community. Pay careful attention to how Matt frames his day-to-day efforts, more specifically, how he centers the people on this campus, especially students.

Lovett alum and Director of Annual Giving Maggie Dozier Carr also joins Living Lovett host Jessica Sant to discuss True Blue and what impact the annual fund has on student experience (in addition to the experience of faculty and staff.)
