Fundraising at Village Montessori School
The culture of generosity here at VMS is one of our greatest strengths. We are a brand new nonprofit and are asking for your support for our Giving Campaign and events, which will directly improve our capacity to serve our community.
Below is information about the upcoming givng campaign and events. Please remember that no gift is too small. Whatever you are willing and able to give is a blessing, not only to the school and those who are currently a part of our community, but to those who will follow in our footsteps: the families and students who will be joining us and our community in the years to come.
Retroactively once our 501(c)3 status is officially designated, many of you may qualify for tax deductible donations to VMS––please consult with your financial advisor to see if this is the case.
