Over its 25 years, Brehm Preparatory School has made meaningful, life-changing impact on hundreds of students’ lives. This is possible only because of the generous financial gifts and product and service donations by our support partners. Please join our alumni, current, former and alumni parents and grandparents, Board of Trustees members, and many other partners in continuing the critical mission of Brehm for generations to come.

This fall, Brehm will begin its 25th Anniversary year of Celebration. Your support will be especially timely and crucial during this period.

The funding for our new academic building. girls dormitory and
Student Activities Center was raised, in part, through the annual giving fund.

Annual Giving Fund.

Over 10 years ago, parents established The Annual Giving Fund to provide student and faculty support not possible through the operational budget. Through the support of our donors, significant facility improvements and extensive staff development opportunities have been funded.

The Annual Fund represents unrestricted gifts given from July 1 of each year through June 30 of the following year. Brehm has a proud tradition of Annual Giving Fund support from all members of the Brehm community. Each person is asked to support Annual Giving through monetary gifts, appreciated stock, credit card contributions, in-kind donations, and will provisions as well as other estate and planned giving donations.
You can enhance your gift by taking advantage of corporate matching gift programs that match charitable contributions made by its employees and retirees. Simply contact your company’s personnel and benefits office to receive information on their specific program. Then mail the completed matching gift form, with your gift, to Brehm's School Advancement Office for processing. 

As Carol Brehm’s dream celebrates its 25th Anniversary starting this fall, let us not lose her passion for these students with complex learning disabilities.

For more information regarding your monetary gift, appreciated securities or other estate gifts, please contact Jennifer Conwell at (618) 457-0371 ext. 1309.
