Support Siempre Verde The Siempre Verde Endowment Fund  The Ecuadorian government has declared Siempre Verde a protected forest, ensuring that Lovett’s property will be held in perpetuity. Now, through the generosity of a challenge grant offered by Dorothy C. Fuqua, the Lovett community has the opportunity to ensure that this cloudforest classroom will have a dedicated funding source, as well. Mrs. Dorothy C. Fuqua challenged the Lovett community to raise $250,000 in order to establish The Siempre Verde Endowment Fund. All gifts made to the Fund through December 31, 2005, were matched dollar for dollar by Mrs. Fuqua.  For more information on contributing to The Siempre Verde Endowment Fund, please contact Andy Spencer in The Lovett School Development Office at aspencer@lovett.org. Student Challenge Grant A student challenge grant offered additional money if Lovett students could raise a certain amount themselves. Former students Paul Merz and David Pulliam led that effort, with endeavors as diverse as working the concession stand at athletic events and selling shade-grown coffee from the farms near Siempre Verde. A December 28, 2004, article in the Atlanta Journal-Constitution chronicled these student efforts; click here to read the article. Home
