Annual Fund Drive

 

 

 

 

What is the Annual Fund Drive?

​

It is one of our school's most important fundraisers and provides vital support for our operating budget. The Annual Fund allows us to set tuition at a level that is affordable for as many families as possible and, in part, contributes to our Tuition Assistance Program, designed to maintain economic diversity. If we did not fundraise, tuition would be more expensive for everyone. Camellia Waldorf School is among the most diverse and least expensive independent Waldorf schools in North America.

​

How are the funds used?

​

The Annual Fund raises money for the school's general fund. It helps pay for teachers' salaries, mortgage payments, electricity, books, science supplies, art supplies and physical education equipment. Funds in excess of our goal could be used for campus improvements.​​​

​

When 100% of our parents, staff, faculty and board members contribute to the Annual Fund, we send a powerful message to the broader community and potential grant funders that our school has full support. Give generously. Give as you are able. All community members, friends and supporters are invited to participate. Every gift matters, no matter the size.

​

With your contribution, our children will flourish in receiving another year of an extraordinary Waldorf education and our school will continue to develop, making it our own.

​​​The Waldorf education my children received at Camellia was the best preparation they could've had for life.  My older daughter is thriving now in college and my youngest is in high school. Please join me in contributing to the Annual Fund to support Camellia’s rich educational programs and help make them accessible to more families by keeping tuition affordable."
