The Family You Choose

Honor the Tilton friendships that last a lifetime

As an alum, you know better than anyone that a dorm room is more than a place to rest. It’s a home away from home — a space that creates memories and lays the foundation for life’s next steps. The Knowles Hall project is about honoring our legacy as a school while building for the exciting possibilities the future holds. “Our gift for the Knowles Project is an important investment to preserve Tilton’s legacy,” says Kristen Kupperman ’06. “We are all influenced by the environment in which we live, work, and learn and we are thrilled to support building a vibrant space that plays a formative role in our Tilton School community.” Naming a dorm room — for yourself, your floormates, or in honor of a teacher, coach, or mentor — is your chance to support the future of Tilton while leaving a mark for generations to come. By honoring the community in this way, you distinguish yourself as a leader and align yourself with the most influential project in the history of the school.

For a pledge of $5,000 per year for five years, you can secure your naming opportunity today. Rooms are available on a first-come, first-served basis. If you can’t afford that commitment on your own at this time, perhaps a group of former roommates/floormates, classmates, or teammates would want to pool gifts together. Looking for a way to thank that faculty member who helped set your course? We would even let you break the news to your honoree if you’d like. No matter your vision for this gift, it is an incredible opportunity to give back to Tilton. Thank you for your consideration.
