We ask everyone to make a personally meaningful gift for the benefit of the Bronx Science Speech & Debate Team in recognition of how much the team meant to them and to help the current students have the same transformative opportunities.

Our goal is to raise $5 million for a permanent fund which will generate sufficient income to fully fund the needs of the Team. Alumni, parents and friends may make a multi-year pledge and make their gifts in annual installments in honor of the 50th anniversary.

All funds raised go to the financial health of the Bronx Science Speech & Debate Team including financial subsidies for every tournament, registration fees, airfare, hotels, buses, coaches and financial aid for students.

There are a variety of naming opportunities and we encourage all alumni, parents and friends to make the Speech & Debate Team a philanthropic priority.
