Purple & Gold Fund

The Purple & Gold Fund is an annual invitation to every member of our community to invest in the power of young women. All contributions to the Purple & Gold Fund are used in the current school year to expand the opportunities available to our students and teachers beyond what is covered by tuition.  
  
Gifts to the Purple & Gold Fund make an immediate impact. When you support NCS by giving to the Purple & Gold Fund, you support our ability to provide an unparalleled educational experience, attract and retain highly talented faculty and staff, and fuel the environment and opportunities available to our students.

Your investment and the collective power of everyone’s support is essential.
