ANNUAL GIVING CAMPAIGN

The Annual Giving Campaign touches every aspect of our school, allowing us to thrive daily. It also enables us to say “yes” to new opportunities that benefit our students and support our teachers.  At Mountain Laurel, every child is valued and celebrated.  When you make MLMS your philanthropic priority, you are investing in a better future for our children and the many lives they will touch. Your gift to the fund goes to where it is most needed. Most funds go towards supplementing student financial assistance, replacing well-loved and used materials in the classroom, on-going facilities maintenance and upkeep of our cherished grounds, and to support other programs as needed. 
 
Annual gifts, no matter the size, are an important income stream that ensure’s the school’s fiscal health and continued excellence.  Donors are a very important part of the Mountain Laurel Montessori family. Contributions whether financially, or with time and talent, have a positive impact in the lives of our children, staff, and community. 
We would like to express our deepest appreciation to parents, grandparents, special friends, and alumni who donated time, talent, energy, and monetary donations through their volunteer work.  Your names and stories are too numerous to list…we cannot express enough our gratitude for each and every hour you gave and every additional dollar you contributed to support the children and our mission of providing “an education for life.”  
 
The Giving Campaign runs yearly. You have the opportunity to give anytime. All gifts make a difference.

"My boys both attended Mountain Laurel. They are independent, resourceful and resilient; and they are really nice young men! Do I worry about them?...Oh my, I worry plenty of little things (I'm a mom!); but the overall picture of who they are, the choices they make, their ability to take care of themselves…not too much. I will always be grateful that Mountain Laurel was a part of their foundation building."

Maureen McGowan, former MLMS parent
