Save Our School: An Urgent Call to Help Golden Hills Academy, formerly All Children Academics

We are reaching out in a time of urgent need to help save our beloved elementary school, Golden Hills Academy (formerly All Children Academics). For over 15 years at our current location in San Rafael, California, we've been a sanctuary for Bay Area children with special needs, providing them with the care, support, and education they deserve. Our school is more than just a place of learning—it’s a lifeline for families, offering their children a chance to thrive in ways that traditional environments can’t always provide. For many of our students, our school is the only option for learning, the only school where they have been understood, and the only place where the whole family has been welcomed.

The Challenge: Due to unforeseen and uncontrollable circumstances, we are being forced to vacate our current property by December 31st, 2024. This is a heartbreaking development for all of us, but we are not giving up. After searching tirelessly, we’ve found a new school location that will allow us to continue serving our students into middle school, but we need your help to secure it. This is urgent.

Why Your Support Matters: Golden Hills Academy is a lifeline for children with special needs and their families. We offer specialized services that empower our students to grow academically, socially, and emotionally in a safe, nurturing environment. The relationships we’ve built with our students and their families have changed lives, and we can’t let that support system disappear. Without GHA, many of our students will not have a classroom or school that can support their needs and development.

Our Goal: We are urgently raising funds to secure this new school building and move our students to an environment where we can continue to expand our services and support even more students in need. Every dollar raised will go directly toward the new location and outfitting it with everything our kids need to succeed.

How You Can Help: We are racing against the clock to raise the necessary funds, and we need your support now more than ever. Whether you’re able to give $10 or $10,000, every contribution makes a difference. All donations are tax-deductible, and you’ll be directly impacting the lives of children and families who rely on Golden Hills Academy. A mother once said, you are only as happy as your unhappiest child. In our world, we have given mothers, fathers, grandparents, siblings, and of course our students their happiness back.

Please donate today and help us save our school!
