Giving Tuesday!
2021-11-30
This year, MCS is participating in GivingTuesday on November 30, 2021. GivingTuesday is a global generosity movement that unleashes the power of radical generosity around the world.
As we all know, the past couple of years have been a challenge. Many of our fundraising events were cancelled; therefore, our school could not raise all the necessary funds to enrich our classrooms.
One of the ways we wanted to refresh each of our eight classrooms was by replacing the carpet. This summer, we were only able to fund new carpet for two of the classrooms. The rooms turned out so nice that we would really like to carpet the other six classrooms.
MCS strives to provide quality education and is dedicated to providing enriching materials and supplies for our classrooms. We ask that you support us in also providing an esthetically pleasing environment that welcomes our students each school day. Please help us reach our goal of $25,000.00 for new classroom carpeting.
All of us at MCS thank you in advance for your generosity!
You can go to our Facebook page to donate online or send donation to our school at:
Montessori Children’s Schoolhouse
5935 Hohman Avenue
Hammond, IN 46320
