Help us reach our goal of $15,000 this Giving Tuesday!
Bayou Village School offers a holistic approach to academic excellence that respects the wonder of childhood, preserves children's passion for learning, allows children to develop a strong connection with nature and fosters the development of children's imagination and creativity.
In an environment that embraces the beauty of nature and cultivates respect for it, Bayou Village School prepares children to meet the challenges of our world and the future with clarity of thought, a caring heart, and the confidence to initiate change.
As a 501c3 non-profit, Bayou Village School relies on donors to support our program. Your financial donations are focused and contribute towards these three areas of giving:
- Building and Grounds: Bayou Village School has undergone a variety of renovations through the years including the purchasing of our new Hardy property in 2015, the purchasing of an adjacent lot for a playground expansion in 2016, and various improvements and renovations to both our building and playground. - Financial Aid: Bayou Village School offers financial aid to our mixed kindergarten and grades families who qualify. In the last two years alone, we have granted $215,000 in financial assistance to families to help offset the cost of tuition. - Teacher Training: Bayou Village School provides financial supplementation to all teachers each year of $1,000-$5,000 interested in growing professionally through Waldorf training programs. Over the last 5 years, BVS has offered $95,000 providing 7 different teachers the opportunity towards Waldorf certification. Employer Matching Programs Will your employer MATCH your gift? Double your donation and maximize your gift to Bayou Village School. Did you know that many employers offer Gift Matching programs. And some companies will even match to spouses or retirees gifts. Your company may match your donation to non-profit organizations—including schools. Even small gifts make a big difference. If you would like assistance with this matching option please contact Marylynn Gomez at [email protected].
We graciously ask you to support us this Giving Tuesday throughout the month of November by making either a one-time or recurring monthly donation to our program and help us reach our goal of $15,000.
