Donating to the Waldorf School of Pittsburgh

Make a donation to the Waldorf School of Pittsburgh

 

Welcome to the Waldorf School of Pittsburgh’s development web page.

Our school fulfills a unique role in our region’s rich and varied Pre-K to 8 educational landscape by offering children an education unique in its understanding of child development and its integration of the arts, music, language, movement, and emotional and spiritual development in children. As noted in Beyond Ecophobia, it is an education that starts “on the student’s home ground, where family, culture and natural history resonate in a personal, grounded manner.” Our school is one of over 1,000 Waldorf schools world-wide. Each, in distinctly different ways, strives to realize this common vision of educational excellence.

The core mission of our office is to ensure that our students experience learning as a living engagement with the world by making certain that our teachers have the resources to create such opportunities for learning each day. And because our school, like all Waldorf schools, is an independent, community supported organization, realizing this vision of meaningful teaching and learning is dependent on the generous gifts of time, talent, funds and spirit of the school’s families and our broader community.

When we ask for your financial assistance, we do so for no other reason than to support the school in fulfilling its mission to educate each child in the extraordinary way our school makes possible.
