M. Crist Fleming Endowment Fund
The M. Crist Fleming Endowment for International Understanding and Leadership was initially established through the benefit of a $500,000 bequest from TASIS alumnus John E. Palmer ’64. This seed money is being augmented by donations from other TASIS alumni, parents, and friends to honor the accomplishments of TASIS’s Founder, M. Crist Fleming. Read more about TASIS' Founder M. Crist Fleming.
The Endowment supports student involvement in international service projects (pertaining to refugees, immigration, homelessness, health, and environmental sustainability), funds the TASIS Senior Humanities Program, and aims to cross linguistic, ethnic, and national borders among our students through theater and music, a tactic for which we already have an admirable tradition and reputation. The Endowment also provides resources to invite distinguished guest speakers and attract and retain world-class faculty – the soul of the TASIS experience. It will be used to fund student scholarships, as well as for the professional development of our teachers. The Endowment does not finance capital projects. It is managed by the TASIS Foundation, a Swiss non-profit educational foundation. Donations to the TASIS Foundation for the Endowment are tax-deductible in Switzerland or in the United States, depending on the residency of the donor.
Donations to the M. Crist Fleming Endowment Fund for International Understanding and Leadership will honor our Founder and will continue to help bring her dream to life for current and future generations of TASIS students.
