Support CSW

The world is changing.

Now is the time to act. 

At CSW, education isn’t just preparation for life — it’s a vital force shaping our present and our future. In a world marked by political division, climate crisis, rapidly evolving technology, and social injustice, CSW empowers young people to rise above noise and navigate complexity with courage, empathy, and informed conviction.

When you give to CSW, you're investing in a progressive education that embraces inquiry, equity, and sustainability. You’re supporting a dynamic learning model that evolves with the times — preparing students to lead with values, not just credentials.

Join us in standing for education that opens minds, challenges bias, and nurtures purpose. Because the future won’t wait — and neither should we.

The stock must have been held for at least 12 months for you to claim a charitable deduction at full fair market value. If the deduction exceeds $10,000, a qualified appraisal is required for tax purposes.
