This year marks our 5th Annual Ernie the Hornet Giving Day, celebrating the power of a Big Heart and Even Bigger Visions for our Future. At Hamden Hall, our vision
is centered on continued growth, innovation, and opportunity for every student, in every classroom, every day. From strengthening academic programs and enhancing campus spaces to supporting outstanding faculty and enriching the student experience, the future we imagine is bold, dynamic, and full of promise.
 
That future is made possible through the generosity of our community. This special Giving Day is about participation. Every gift, no matter the size, makes a meaningful difference and helps move Hamden Hall forward. Together, we can make an impact today and for generations to come.
 
Our campus will be buzzing all day with fun activities, school spirit, special treats, and visits from Ernie the Hornet himself. All community members are encouraged to wear green and white and anything Hamden Hall to show their support!
