About the Community Capital Campaign 

The Community Capital Campaign (CCC) was established in 2023 to fundraise for the William Penn School District’s 10-Year Facilities Master Plan. The plan aims to improve existing building infrastructure, alleviate overcrowding in school buildings, and update student academic environments by providing new 21st-century learning spaces. 

CCC committee members come from the William Penn School District staff and board, the Penn Wood Foundation, families, alumni, and more.
