Support
A special thank you goes out to the following foundations who help the school financially and include us on their website.
Doug and Maria DeVos Foundation
Help keep The Potter’s House available to all students. Partner With Us.
The Potter’s House School has a budget of $3.467 million for 2011-2012. With only 20% of our budget met through tuition, approximately $2.6 million will be needed to meet our budget this year. In addition to giving towards general operations to carry out our mission, we have created some specific ways for donors to partner with us.
Join hundreds of general gift supporters by helping underwrite tuition for our student body. Gifts and pledges of all sizes help offset the costs of staff, programs, school supplies, facility maintenance, and a host of educational opportunities for our students. You can play an important part in impacting the lives of hundreds of children by making a regular gifts online or through the mail.
Partnership Program
Through our Partnership Program, you can change the future—one child at a time. The cost of education at The Potter’s House averages $6,000 per student. Parents pay tuition based on family income, with a minimum commitment of $570 per family. Partners for Success is one way you can help us raise the difference!
Partner With a Student
For $4,000 a year you can underwrite a student’s entire education, or you can join with others and partner with a student, starting with a pledge as low as $500. After making your pledge, you will receive information about your student partner. You will also receive updates and cards from your student throughout the school year.
Partner With a Classroom
You can also partner with an entire classroom in order to assist with additional expenses. Classroom sponsors give $25,000 a year and receive a special relationship with the students in their classroom. Based upon your time and desired commitment, you can be involved in the classroom every week or visit a couple of times a year. Co-sponsorship is also available for $12,500.
Once a year all partners are given the opportunity to attend a special partner day at the school.
Pledges to the Partners for Success programs can be paid monthly, quarterly, or annually. At the end of your pledge you will be asked to renew your partnership for another year–or more.
