Let's Match the Moment for Chewonki

A Message from Chewonki President, Nancy Kennedy

Dear friends,

The season is shifting, and there’s a special kind of energy in the air. Snowflakes are drifting down, woodstoves are heating up, and the campus bell rings across the Neck, a reminder that it’s time to come together as a community. This year, we hope you’ll hear that call, too.

As we lean into this season of connection and celebration, we’re thrilled to share a new opportunity that makes every gift shine brighter. A group of Chewonki board members has created a matching challenge available through December 31:

All gifts of $1,000+ will be matched*

500 gifts of any size will unlock a $100,000 challenge grant

Your support is what keeps the Chewonki spirit ringing and opening doors for young people to learn, grow, and discover real connection in the natural world. When you give, you help spark the moments that matter most: friendships formed, courage discovered, and communities built.

Together, we can ring in a season of generosity that echoes across campus and beyond.

Thank you for helping make our work possible. You can track our campaign’s progress here → [Ring in the New Match].

With gratitude,
Nancy Kennedy
Chewonki President
