Building Our Future

We are grateful to the many members of the Browning community who have stepped forward in support of Building Our Future: A Comprehensive Campaign to Advance Browning’s Mission. With the goal of raising $50 million by June 2027, the Campaign’s main priorities include moving the Upper School to 337 East 64th Street, augmenting programming, supporting faculty, and endowing financial aid to help support a 20% enrollment increase in Grades 5–12. We are pleased to recognize the following donors and their Campaign commitments.

Jodi and Steven are thrilled to be naming the Red Doors at the 62nd Street Schoolhouse as part of their commitment to the Building Our Future Campaign: “The Red Doors will always hold a special place in our hearts, even though our son, Lucas, graduated from Browning in 2022. We are honored to be a part of this pivotal expansion for Browning.”

Consistent leadership Annual Fund donors, Jodi and Steven also serve as Campaign Co-Chairs and Jodi has sat on the Board of Trustees since 2020. Lucas recently finished his freshman year at University of Pennsylvania, where their daughter, Jessica, has also been enrolled since graduating from Packer Collegiate in 2020.

Carolyn and Matt have been members of the Browning community since 2018, when their sons Dashiell and Henry enrolled in Grades 7 and 4, respectively. They are wonderful ambassadors for the School, always seeking opportunities to connect with other parents in their sons’ classes. Carolyn and Matt chose to direct their Campaign gift towards Professional Development and Recruitment:

“One of the many things we cherish about Browning are the teachers, who have made countless contributions to Dashiell’s and Henry’s growth as boys and as students. We want to help ensure Browning retains and recruits leading faculty and staff for years to come.”

Carolyn and Matt also have a daughter, Madeline, who graduated from Convent of the Sacred Heart in 2022 and recently completed her freshman year at the University of Kansas.

George and his wife, Tatiana, are delighted to establish The Cabrera-Cordoba Endowed Fund for Financial Assistance, which they will complement with Annual Fund leadership gifts for the remaining years of the Campaign. Their fund will provide support to Browning students who qualify for financial assistance so that they can partake in all School activities and have access to resources not covered by tuition.

“Tatiana and I are committed to leveling the playing field so that all Browning students can take advantage of the range of opportunities available to them outside the classroom and beyond the Red Doors. We hope other members of the Browning community will be inspired to take part in this initiative.”

George attended Browning for Grades 7–12 and joined the Board of Trustees in July 2022. He and Tatiana live in Belmont, California, with their daughters Mila, age 8, and Evie, age 2.
