How You Can Fundraise

FUNDRAISING EVENTS

A yearly timeline has been developed to let our community know about 

Maharishi School’s fundraising events. Our Development Office will regularly send email notifications to inform our community of friends, family, and donors about upcoming fundraising efforts.

Our major fundraising events occur in the fall, winter, and spring. Our fall fundraiser is the only time we involve the students, providing an opportunity to ask friends and family to support the school.

In addition to larger campaigns, Maharishi School Development Office hosts Pickleball and Golf Tournaments, offers ways to honor teacher’s on Teacher Appreciation Day, celebrates with you events like Winter Holidays and Valentine’s Day, and honors all families on Generations Day.

Learn more about our major annual fundraising events.

Fall: Raise Craze

Our Fall Fundraiser: Raise Craze is a unique way for us to raise money for Maharishi School while making an impact in our community. During this fundraiser, students ask friends and family for donations via the online Raise Craze platform while paying it forward serving others. What a great way for us to teach our students the importance of kindness and gratitude while raising much needed funds. Here’s a quick 2-minute video to tell you more.

Every Maharishi School student can participate in Raise Craze by completing Acts of Kindness., making an impact by spreading kindness in our community! Acts of Kindness can include many things such as writing thank you cards to the local fire department, baking cookies for a neighbor, or even telling a friend what they mean to you. The possibilities are endless, and no act of kindness is too small! 

Winter: Season of Giving Campaign

Throughout the month of December, Maharishi School creates several opportunities, including Giving Tuesday and Matching Donations, for donors to support our Annual Fund. This unrestricted fund helps the school meet annual expenses such as employee salaries, upgrades in technology, financial aid, and materials and supplies for the classroom.

is a global generosity movement unleashing the power of people and organizations to transform their communities and the world. It was created as a day that encourages people to do good. Giving Tuesday, held annually the first Tuesday after Thanksgiving, has grown over the years into a year-round global movement that inspires hundreds of millions of people to give, collaborate, and celebrate generosity. Maharishi School celebrates this event through emails sent and giveaways on social media.

Towards the end of December, we have been fortunate to have donors who will match individual donations dollar for dollar. This is a time of year when donors are looking to make a tax-deductible donation to Maharishi School, and what better way than to double the impact. During this Season of Giving, these donations support a brighter future for our dedicated faculty and staff, as well as our creative and intelligent students. 

Spring: Annual Fund Drive

When the spring season arrives, we reach out to our extended community to support our Annual Fund. We are so appreciative of supporters from around the world who have a passionate belief and pride in the Maharishi School experience.

Donor gifts to the Spring Annual Fund drive fuel Maharishi School’s investments in its program and its people. These gifts have an immediate impact on the experience of current students and faculty members.

Maharishi Yagya performances are Vedic performances that promote success and good fortune for the school. Our community-wide yagyas take place each Spring. We invite everyone to participate by donating, as these yagyas strengthen the cornerstones of our community. Thank you for supporting Maharishi School and our greater community.

🌈At Maharishi Preschool we are cultivating with 🌈At Maharishi Preschool we are cultivating within each child a sense of independence and capability. 
🌈When the children enter into the gates of our playground carrying their lunch and wearing their backpack, a sense of responsibility, independence, and capability is enlivened in them.
🌈They know where to put their belongings and they know where they are when they need them or when it is time to go home. 
🌈During their time at school, they make many choices and their sense of capability grows each day. 
🌈They are following their internal drive to master skills, grow, and learn, and by allowing them to be responsible for their own belongings, these qualities will continue to be reinforced.
🌈The sense of pride when children feel responsible in these small but significant ways is such a beautiful thing to witness!
