The Greenspring Fund

Every year at Greenspring we ask for your support so that we can continue to offer the children at Greenspring an outstanding educational experience. 

Our Greenspring Fund captures and celebrates all of the annual giving to the school—time, talent, and treasure. Whether you choose to give to one or all three, every gift to the school makes a significant difference in the education we provide and the experience our children have.

Greenspring’s Family of Funds

Our Family of Funds allows you to direct your gift to a school initiative for which you have a particular affinity.

Below is a description of each Fund within Greenspring’s Family of Funds. As our staff and faculty look for ways to grow and enrich our children’s experiences, we maintain a list of their wishes. We determine which of these items can and will be paid for in the operating budget, and which will need to be funded through other sources. Items that fall outside the scope of our annual operating budget contribute to the formation of our Family of Funds. When giving through our Family of Funds, you may select one or more Fund to channel your gift. Should a fund exceed the need listed, we will direct your gift where it is needed most.

Tuition Assistance Fund

Opening Greenspring’s doors to more students

We commit 10% of our operating budget to our Tuition Assistance program as we believe strongly in the importance of economic diversity in our community. Your support will help us to reach more families and enable children to attend Greenspring who otherwise would not be able to do so.
Goal: $25,000

Educational Materials & Initiatives

Broadening our children’s experiences

At Greenspring, we are always looking to expand our offerings to meet the needs of our children and respond to our ever-changing world. Gifts to this Fund will help us purchase materials and provide Going Outs and field trips for our students.
Goal: $25,000

Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, & Belonging

Supporting our growing citizens of the world

Your support will help us further Dr. Montessori’s work around peace education through professional development opportunities and the expansion of our curriculum.
Goal: $10,000

Greens & Grounds Fund

Creating beautiful outdoor spaces

Providing outdoor spaces for our children to explore and our community to gather is one of our next big initiatives. We must connect our children to nature in order for them to grow with a love of the outdoors and a desire to protect our world. Gifts will help us create beautiful outdoor spaces for our children and our community.
Goal: $25,000

Staff Appreciation Fund

Recognizing our staff

Helping to guide the next generation of world citizens is big work and we know that our staff is the heart of our community! Our Staff Appreciation Fund gives you the opportunity to recognize them for bringing their full intelligence and heart to school every day. We will use the funds raised for staff lunches and treats throughout the year.
Goal: $5,000

The Greatest Need Fund

Help Greenspring in the area where it is needed most
