Help Waldorf-inspired school in Ecuador build 2 classrooms
Donation protected
Waldorf-inspired school in Ecuador needs your donation to construct two new classrooms.
Help us realize our dream to provide our children with an alternative education.
We started with just four students in a family' s backyard.
Today, we have 30 students enrolled, and we’re continuing to grow! To accommodate our expanding school, we need to construct two new classrooms.
Our dedicated parents have been tirelessly raising funds.
We’ve hosted several garage sales and reached out to close family and friends for donations and materials.
In August 2023, with the help of the parents, we constructed an addition to our kindergarten classroom and completed a new dining area.
