Volunteer Opportunities
Andover would not be the extraordinary school that it is without the alumni, parents, and friends who give their time, talents, and treasure each year. Volunteering is a great way to make a difference at Andover and to the young people it prepares for lives of leadership and service. Volunteers renew old friendships and discover new ones as ambassadors for the Academy and engaged community members.
The Andover Fund
Since Andover’s founding in 1778, the generosity of generations of alumni has enriched the Academy and allowed its students to flourish. Through the class agent program, Andover alumni reach out to their classmates and friends and help continue the cycle of giving. As a volunteer, you play a critical role in fulfilling the Academy’s educational mission and ensuring its status as an institution of the very highest distinction. You honor Andover by your service and support. Thank you!
Parent Fund
Parent Fund volunteers represent the Academy to parents of current and prospective students and help develop a community among Andover parents. Volunteers also assist in raising gifts from Andover parents to sustain Andover's educational excellence. Areas of opportunity include parent and grandparent volunteers, phonathons, and regional associations.
