Dear Friends of Woodville,

This has been a great year for the School. 

In July, thanks to the generosity of our community, the Foundation purchased the building from the Gloucester County Economic Development Authority.  In November, we had a successful Giving Tuesday event at the Gloucester Brewery.  

Members of the Foundation and the Brewer Family, Owners of Gloucester Brewing Co.

We have engaged with several community organizations that are interested in working with us to preserve the rich African American history of Gloucester and to make the School a community resource for a variety of activities in the future.

Please consider an end of year donation to the Woodville School.  Click on the “DONATE” or “CONTACT US” buttons at the bottom of this page for instructions. Thank you for your support this year, and Best Wishes for 2020.

We are a 501(c)(3) Nonprofit foundation. All donations are tax-deductible.
