Welcome: Your Support Makes a Difference!

For generations, Gilman has transformed the lives of boys — not only through the excellence of its education, but also through the generosity of those who believe in its mission.
Director of Development Heather Harlan Warnack

It is a privilege to serve as Gilman’s Assistant Head of School for Advancement. As a proud Gilman parent and a graduate of a “sister” institution, I have witnessed and benefited firsthand from the transformative power of an independent school education. Those experiences have deepened my appreciation for the vital role philanthropy plays in sustaining schools like Gilman and ensuring they continue to flourish for future generations.

This year, our Gilman Fund theme, Power of the Pack, celebrates the extraordinary impact we make together. Every act of generosity — whether through The Gilman Fund, a capital gift, an endowed fund, a planned gift, or support for the area of the School that is most meaningful to you — strengthens the opportunities available to our boys and advances Gilman’s mission.

As we look ahead, Gilman is preparing for an exciting new chapter — one that will build upon our tradition of excellence through thoughtful investments in the arts, athletics, and The Gilman Fund. I look forward to sharing more with you in the months ahead as we continue to shape this remarkable school’s evolution.

Whether you are a first-time donor or loyal supporter, thank you for making Gilman a philanthropic priority. Your generosity fortifies the School’s foundation today and ensures that our Greyhounds will leave a lasting legacy in the communities where they live and work tomorrow.

With gratitude,

Heather Harlan Warnack
Assistant Head of School for Advancement
