Dear Fairwood Families,

Imagine your child’s eyes widening as they hold a real worm during science class. Or create a masterpiece in art. Or explore the California Gold Rush on an unforgettable overnight 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 generous families like yours, our students built their own garden beds and shared their first harvest fruits—some even tried apricots for the very first time. One shy student who hardly spoke in class found her voice during a field trip and returned brimming with confidence. This is the difference your donation makes.

What Your Donation Supports

Your contribution brings hands-on experiences, creativity, and connection to every student, 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: Renowned artists inspire memorable art lessons.
• Project Cornerstone: Social-emotional learning where kids care and grow their resilience.
• 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 overnight field trips)

Even a penny will make a difference. And if you’re able, please consider a gift beyond your family’s suggested amount to support classmates facing hardship.
