Annual Fund
The Annual Fund does not simply fill gaps in our operating budget; it allows us to invest in the people, materials, and environments that make an exceptional Montessori education possible both now and in the future. With your gifts, we are able to:
Provide high-quality, developmentally appropriate Montessori classroom materials.
Offer competitive compensation, benefits and ongoing professional development for our dedicated educators and staff.
Care for and maintain our beautiful campus, where children have the freedom to explore, discover, and connect with nature.
Keep tuition as low as possible, making Montessori education accessible to more families.
Annual Giving Campaign
The Annual Giving Campaign is an important part of our yearly fundraising efforts. Each fall, we call on our broader community for support. Every gift, regardless of size, enables us go beyond the essentials to sustain Villa di Maria as a truly special place for our children to learn and grow.
Annual Trivia Night & Silent Auction
Our annual Trivia Night & Silent Auction is a beloved tradition, bringing together our community for an evening of fun, friendly competition, and fundraising in support of Villa di Maria.
From purchasing tickets and bidding on auction items, to donating experiences or sponsoring the event, there are plenty of ways to get involved. Best of all, the funds raised go right back into supporting our students, educators, and campus.
