Help a living education take root

Invest in children.
Nourish a community.

Your generosity can help children encounter living books, worthy ideas, meaningful work, the beauty of creation, and relationships that cultivate wisdom and wonder.

A shared work worth sustaining

Help make a beautiful education
more accessible.

Family fees make our shared program possible, but they do not remove every barrier or meet every need. Support from friends, extended family, churches, businesses, and others who believe in this work can help keep family costs more affordable while allowing Fontes to grow with care.

Every gift—large or small—can strengthen the real, daily conditions in which children learn: a welcoming room, a sturdy table, a shelf of living books, materials ready for meaningful work, and a place at the table for a family who otherwise could not participate.

STARTING FROM THE GROUND UP

Fontes has a new building—but we are beginning without the furniture, supplies, and equipment a thriving learning community needs. We are building this place together, and generous help will turn empty rooms into spaces where children can learn, work, and belong.

What generosity can make possible

Give toward what
matters now.

01

Family scholarships

Help offset rising family costs so that a rich Fontes education remains within reach for families who share this vision.

02

A comfortable place to learn

Help meet practical facility needs, beginning with portable air conditioners that make our new building safe, comfortable, and welcoming throughout the school day.

03

Essential furniture

Provide the basic tables, chairs, shelving, storage, and gathering pieces needed to turn a building into a thoughtful place for learning and community.

04

Everyday supplies

Supply the books, notebooks, paper, art materials, nature-study tools, handicraft resources, and ordinary essentials our children use together.

Every gift can move the work forward

Any amount

Where it is needed most

Allow Fontes leaders to respond thoughtfully to the most immediate need facing the community.

More than things

Your support creates
room for relationships.

These practical needs serve a deeply human purpose. They create the conditions for children to be known, mothers to be strengthened, teachers to offer worthy ideas, and families to build a lasting community around what is true, good, and beautiful.

FOR A CHILD

A place to belong and learn

Scholarship support can welcome a child into rich books, beautiful subjects, meaningful work, and friendships that grow over time.

FOR A MOTHER

Support for the journey

An accessible community gives mothers encouragement, training, shared wisdom, and families with whom to carry the work of homeschooling.

FOR THE COMMUNITY

A place prepared with care

Comfortable rooms, useful furniture, and ready supplies allow attention to rest on people, ideas, and shared life rather than unmet practical needs.

Generosity takes many forms

There is more than
one way to give.

01

Give once

Meet an immediate need or help Fontes direct resources where they are most needed.

02

Give monthly

Create steady, dependable support that helps our leaders plan responsibly for the year ahead.

03

Sponsor a need

Come alongside a scholarship, facility need, furniture purchase, supply project, or special program.

04

Give goods or skills

Offer needed materials, professional expertise, practical labor, or another resource that could strengthen our work.

05

Pray and share

Pray for wisdom and provision, and introduce Fontes to others who care about living education and strong families.

06

Begin a conversation

Talk with a Fontes leader about a larger gift, partnership, matching opportunity, or creative way to help.

We are preparing the way

Online giving is
coming soon.

Fontes is currently confirming its organizational status and establishing a secure giving process. Until those details are complete, this page will not describe contributions as tax-deductible or collect online gifts.

If you would like to express interest in supporting a scholarship, facility need, furniture, supplies, or another part of Fontes, please contact our leadership. We will share confirmed giving information as soon as it is available.

Request Giving Information

Clear questions.
Honest answers.

Why does Fontes need support if families pay fees?+

Family fees cover much of our shared program, but scholarships, growing facility needs, furniture, supplies, and responsible expansion create needs beyond what fees alone can comfortably carry.

Are contributions currently tax-deductible?+

Fontes is confirming its organizational status. We will publish accurate tax and receipt information after those details are finalized; we are not currently making a tax-deductibility claim on this page.

Can I support a particular need?+

We welcome conversations about scholarships, facility comfort, furniture, supplies, and special programs. Final giving and designation options will be explained when our giving process is ready.

Can I offer supplies, services, or practical help?+

Yes. Contact our leadership with what you would like to offer so we can determine whether it matches a current need and coordinate it responsibly.

Can my business, church, or employer become involved?+

We would be glad to begin a conversation about sponsorship, matching opportunities, donated goods, professional services, or another form of partnership.

Come alongside Fontes

what is true, good, and beautiful.
