Wishlist is Bell's primary fundraiser for the following school year and makes up a third of the operational budget. Through the Wishlist, you decide exactly how your tax-deductible, financial contributions will support Bell. You have the unique opportunity to support the programs, subjects, and experiences that you or your child value. No donation is too small, and every cent goes towards enriching Bell! Learn more about Wishlist through our FAQ.

 

Here's how it works:  

  • Scroll down to see the Wishlist campaign items that Bell School would like funded for the 2026-2027 school year.
  • Each Wishlist item page shows the total amount of funding needed (some Wishes require full funding for implementation).
  • Please click on the Wish(es) you would like to donate towards

 

We highly encourage donating to multiple Wishlist items, just note that you will have to perform multiple transations. You can download the paper form if you'd prefer to donate via check.

 

Don't forget about corporate matching and share this fundraiser with friends and family! Thank you for your continued support!
