Detroit Waldorf School Celebrates Inaugural Alumni Giving Day

On Wednesday, May 1st we will celebrate Alumni Giving Day and the 50th anniversary of the first 8th grade graduating class with Theo Buergin. Our goal for Giving Day is to encourage all of our incredible Alumni (students, parents, grandparents, and teachers) to make a gift in honor of their time spent at DWS and to have 100% participation. No matter the size, every gift makes a difference for our school.

Special thanks to our Alumni Resource Panel who collectively donated $2,000 to launch this campaign! Thank you to Kristine Altwies, Michelle Duncan, Jumah Hamilton, Renita Nesby LiVolsi, Jennifer Morris, Neal Newman, David Olmstead, Maureen McNulty Saxton, Claudia Valsi, and Chris Vaneman.

Join your fellow classmates and the whole DWS Alumni Community (teachers, parents, and grandparents) by making a gift today and get the momentum going!

 

Choose the area your gift will support:

  • Teacher Classroom Supplies

  • Teacher Professional Development

  • Building and Grounds Preservation

  • Accessible Tuition

  • Area of Greatest Need
