1784-Minute Challenge
This is Moses Brown School's an annual day and a half of giving that lasts 1784 minutes, honoring the year Moses Brown School was founded. This year’s event took place September 21-22, 2023.
Is it still possible to support Moses Brown?
Yes! Though the challenge is over, we continue to accept donations to the Moses Brown Fund year round.
Why did we choose this date for the 2023 challenge?
To honor the legacy of Moses Brown on what would be his 285th birthday on September 23.
Why did we do it?
It’s a fantastic opportunity for all members of the MB community to come together to celebrate Moses Brown and demonstrate our enduring commitment to inspiring the inner light of every student. Gifts donated during the 1784-Minute Challenge equal 30% of the total amount donated to the Moses Brown Fund during the fiscal year (July 1 – June 30).
