Support the Annual Sustaining Fund

Desert Marigold is a tuition-free but donation-dependent school, and the only K-12 Waldorf-inspired public charter school in the state of Arizona.

Your gift to the annual Sustaining Fund helps to:

• Attract and retain quality, certified teachers

• Provide Waldorf programming and curriculum specific materials and supplies

• Maintain our sprawling 12-acre campus and facilities

Right now, our annual budget gap per student is $1,500. When considering your gift amount, please think of what DMS has meant to you and your family, whether you’ve been with us one year or ten, and give as generously as you’re able. DMS strives for 100% family participation in giving to the Sustaining Fund.

Your participation has an immediate and lasting positive impact on your child, the DMS community, and the greater movement for Public Waldorf education. Every gift, no matter the size, is treasured and makes a real difference.

*Sustaining Fund donors receive a mailed, printed copy of our quarterly newsletter, The Bloom.
