Hello Mulberry Family
Thank you for participating in the Winter Fund Drive for
Mulberry Farm School.
Our goal is to raise $10,000 for Mulberry. If each family
raises $1,000 (that’s 10 people donating $100 each) we will hit our goal
and then some!
All you need to do is click the button below and follow the set up directions.
You will receive an email with instructions to create your
personal fund raising page.
Feel free to reach out to me by email or phone for help :)
Some fundraising and website tips:
It's better to email your community directly, rather then expect donations via social media. While posting on Social media formats such as Twitter and Facebook is a good way to remind people, a personal email is more meaningful. I suggest doing both :)
There's a space for you to tell your child's story. This can be whatever you want it to be: Share what you feel is relevant to your community and don't let this block the process- if you are struggling with this, I am here to help. It's more important to get the word out and start fundraising then get tied up in 'how to tell the story' I find that letting people have a peek into our struggles and how the school is helping us, is a good strategy and allows our community to be updated as well as gives them a platform to help
There is a space to upload a picture. The limit is 300K. If you don't choose a picture, the default is the Mulberry Farm logo- but everyone loves pictures! They create a warm, personal feeling for your page.
The information about the school is set so that no one can change it including the class picture.
~Thanks for your efforts

Mulberry Farm is a Waldorf program, working with children who for a large variety of reasons need to be in a smaller environment and who need to move so that they can get better oriented in their bodies in order to thrive academically and socially.
We work exclusively out of Rudolf Steiner’s work, “Curative Education”, a work he called the deepening of Waldorf Education. We do two hours of movement work every day, including working with the plants and animals on the farm. We work with academics in very small groups, so that each child receives plenty of one on one attention. We do not work with labeling or assessing children, instead we just observe the child, trying to get a clear sense of who they really are, and what is blocking him or her from achieving their highest potentials. Mulberry Farm is a non-profit program located in Santa Rosa, CA.
