Dear Mulberry Waldorf School Community,
​
As autumn surrounds us with its abundance, we are reminded of the growth that comes from seeds planted and nurtured with care. At Mulberry Waldorf School, your support helps ensure that what we cultivate today will continue to flourish for our children tomorrow. We invite you to join us in this year’s Annual Giving Campaign: A Season of Giving, A Lifetime of Growing.

Why does this Campaign matter so deeply? As an independent school and not-for-profit, charitable organization, Mulberry was founded by and continues to be sustained through the dedication of founders, alumni families, current families, and community members. Tuition fees cover approximately 80% of Mulberry’s lean operating costs. Donations to the Annual Giving Campaign bridge this gap, helping to keep tuition as accessible as possible for all families. Unlike tuition, your donation is fully tax-deductible and comes with an official donation receipt.

Your donation directly supports:

• Our students: with an incredible Waldorf curriculum, materials, and experiences.
• Our teachers and staff: with professional development and improved compensation.
• Our school building and grounds: with care and improvements needed to make it a safe, beautiful, and inspiring home that lasts into the future.

Each and every contribution makes a difference. Here are a few examples of how your gift can help:

• $25 – one new classroom book
• $50 – one wooden recorder for a Grade One student to begin their instrumental music journey
• $100 – high-quality art supplies for a classroom
• $250 –  an experiential field trip or team sports tournament
• $500 – professional development for our dedicated teachers
• $1,000 – tuition adjustment funding, making Waldorf education accessible to more families

​Ways to Give
Donations are gratefully accepted via our linked Donation Platform, cheque or cash.
​
​With heartfelt appreciation, we thank you for being part of this community and for considering a donation to our Annual Giving Campaign. In this season of gratitude and giving, we are reminded that every gift is a seed that will grow into a lasting harvest of opportunity for current and future generations of Mulberry students and their families.
