PWF Alumni/Friends
Since 1991, over 2000 students have graduated from the PWF. Many have gone on to successful careers, raising a family and so much more. Please help us serve others by giving whatever you can to the Peter Westbrook Alumni & Friends Program. Do you have a story about the Foundation that you would like to tell? Tell us and we might feature you on the website!

This important way to provide long-term support for the Foundation is a favorite of many PWF supporters. Call Mark Johnson at Merrill Lynch at (212) 415-7897 to discuss the Foundation’s planned giving program.

Matching Donation, In-kind Services, Internships
An very easy way to increase your support is through your company’s match funds program. Please check with your human resources department for the appropriate forms and procedure. Do you have work for a youth in need of developing basic office skills? We have terrific kids looking for a chance to learn about the work world. So send us an email with your pledge and we’ll take if from there.
