| Campaign for the Future!
|
|
Not only are successful campaigns measurable proof of your
support of our programs, high levels of participation may
favorably influence foundations and granting organizations.
Campaign for the Future also bridges the gap when expenses
are not met by tuition. MSO's current vision and goals are
to surface our running track, build a new Middle School classroom,
the addition of an infant / toddler program, and the greening
of the campus. All Campaign for the Future donations are tax
deductible, can be a stock transfer, and can be put on your
credit card.
