Dear Fairwood Families,
Imagine your child’s eyes widening as they hold a real worm during science class. Or create an art masterpiece like Picasso. Or explore the California Gold Rush on an unforgettable mining adventure. Magical moments like these are only possible with your support. And today, you can make more of them happen for every Fairwood Explorer.
Why Your Gift Matters—A True Story
Last year, thanks to the generosity of families like yours, our students built their own garden beds and enjoyed their first harvest fruits—some even tried apricots for the very first time. Several students also experienced their first overnight trip away from home, returning with a newfound sense of confidence and independence. This is the difference your donation makes.
What Your Donation Supports
Your contribution brings hands-on experiences, creativity, and life-long memories our children, including:
- 10 annual field trips for TK-5 students. From making pizza to stepping back in time, these journeys spark curiosity.
- Science, cooking, and project-based learning materials for unforgettable classroom moments
- Meet the Masters: Art lessons inspired by renowned artists
- Project Cornerstone: Social-emotional learning through storytelling
- Community events: Picnics, carnivals, reading nights, and more—where friendships develop
- Garden projects: From seed to salad, every child experiences growth
Every single dollar you give is invested directly in these enriching programs—never administrative overhead. Full transparency, maximum impact.
How Much Should I Give?
After talking with teachers, we suggest:
- $150 (or $15/month) for TK–3rd grade
- $275 (or $27/month) for 4th–5th grade (to cover specialty field trips and activities)
Every dollar will make a difference. And if you’re able, please consider a gift beyond your family’s suggested amount to support classmates facing hardship.
