Fundraising
As a result of maintaining a sliding scale tuition, being based in the Bay Area, and rising costs, we have developed an Annual Fund to help offset some of our costs. We hope to raise money in a variety of ways including direct donations, events, sales, etc. If you have any fundraising ideas for us, please reach out to us.
We are developing an Annual Fund.
The goal of our annual fund is multi-fold and includes the following: supplementing our sliding scale tuition system in order to support families with greater financial need while maintaining a living wage for our educators and staff, staff stipends to help us retain high quality educators living in the Bay Area, professional development opportunities, financial support for indoor spaces in times of extreme weather (such as museum memberships and indoor rental fees). We are looking to raise $30,000 to help provide for these things.
Oakland Saplings Forest School is an LLC, and as such, donations made to us are not tax-deductible.
You can give to us through Venmo or take a look at our Wishlist to provide something we need.
Thank you for supporting our small forest school in any way you can.
