Lyford Cay International School

A Year of Community Impact

We're so proud to be Lyford Cay International School, a truly non-profit institution. We're not driven by private ownership or corporate interests; instead, we belong to each and every one of us – our parents, students, alumni, teachers, staff, and the wider community. Our shared purpose is simple yet profound: to provide the absolute best education for our students.

This year, we've embraced the responsibility of openly asking for your support. Why? Because your contributions are what allow us to move forward, to innovate, and to enhance every aspect of the Lyford Cay experience – from the classroom to the stage and the sports pitch. Every single dollar you give is immediately put to work, directly enriching our students' journeys.

It's thanks to your generosity that we can continue to grow and remain a premier educational destination for families worldwide. Thank you for being such a vital part of our story.

Sincerely,

Paul A. Ryan

Director of Development

P.S. If you haven't yet had the chance to contribute this year, and would like to join our incredible community of alumni, parents, and friends in supporting our school, you can easily make your gift right here.
