FILL THE HILLS Seven Hills' Annual Day of Giving is Back!
Tuesday, March 3, 2026
What is Fill the Hills?
#FilltheHills is our annual giving event that brings together parents, grandparents, alumni, parents of alumni, and friends to give back to Seven Hills.
This year, on March 3, we are asking you to fill the hills of our campuses with Stinger Bees by making a donation to the Annual Fund.
The Annual Fund bridges the gap between tuition and the full cost of a Seven Hills education. It ensures students have access to exceptional teaching, dynamic learning environments, and the programs that define our Portrait of a Learner.
For every donation to the Annual Fund made between now and March 3, we will add a bee with your name on it to the hills on your campus. Every gift, no matter the size, makes an impact, and receives a bee.
Thank you for helping us reach our goal of 226 donors in 2026!
Follow us on Instagram and Facebook for updates on Day of Giving results, and see below for FAQs.
Another Layer of Thanks

As a warm thank-you, all donations of $226 or more will receive a Seven Hills outdoor blanket – a packable essential made for picnics, camping, beach days, and cheering on Stingers wherever you roam.

Are donations tax-deductible?

Why do we “Fill the Hills”?
Each bee represents a donor. As the hills fill, they become a visible reminder of what happens when our community comes together in support of students and teachers.
Where does my donation go?
Your donation will be put to immediate use. Through gifts to the Annual Fund, we are able to elevate our educational experience while keeping our tuition in line with other independent schools. With an unrestricted gift, you can trust it will always be applied to the school’s most urgent and greatest needs. Whether it is providing microscopes or art supplies, field trips or athletic equipment, the Annual Fund helps us keep our excellence in education, our classrooms stocked, and our students engaged.
Annual Giving fills a very real funding gap and provides resources that our students use every day, in every classroom. Seven Hills could quite literally not maintain our standard of excellence without the resources your gifts provide
What if I already made my 2025-26 Annual Fund gift?
Please remember, if you’ve made a donation since July 1, 2025, your participation has been counted and your bee is already on its way to the hills on our campuses. No need to make a second gift, but you can still help us Fill the Hills by reminding friends to give or posting your support on social media using #FilltheHills.
What is your goal for Fill the HIlls?
Our goal is to get 226 donations for the 2026 Day of Giving.
Do I get anything special for giving to Fill the Hills?
Donors who give $226 or more will receive a Seven Hills outdoor blanket as a thank you gift.
Why should I participate?
Participation matters! Your participation indicates your support for Seven Hills and encourages others, especially grant making institutions, to lend their financial support as well.
