Most of the financial support for the daily operations of the Center for Integral Education comes from student tuition. But this is not enough to cover expenses related to our growth and development. Over the last several of years the start up phase of our Rainbow Kids Integral Preschool was only made possible through the generosity of organizations and individuals all over the USA and abroad.

In the years ahead there are many more phases to our growth in becoming viable and meaningful K-12 Integral Education schools. In fact, we entered our next phase of growth with the opening in September 2006 of the Integral Elementary School in La Jolla. Ultimately our continued development is only possible through the generous and strong support of those who share our vision of education for children and who feel our Center for Integral Education has the stability, skills, perseverance, organization, and the staff required to make this vision a reality.

The Center for Integral Education is a nonprofit, public benefit 501(c)3 organization. We invite your tax-deductible donations, and strongly urge you to support this much-needed effort to bring Integral Education to the USA. Please send your contribution to the address below. Your gift, of any amount, is greatly appreciated. In addition to a receipt for tax purposes you will receive a subscription to our Kaleidoscope Newsletter.

Other Ways to Help

What else can individuals and members of our community do to help?

First of all, spread the word about this school and its vision. It is said that each human being is connected by only seven degrees of separation to every other human being on the planet. One never knows who in one's circle may have that crucial line of contact that will bring significant resources.

Second, come visit us anytime you are in San Diego. Or, better yet, make a special trip to San Diego to witness first-hand our work. One can only appreciate what is happening here when seen through one's own eyes.

Third, support our 2006 "A Gem in the Making" $300,000 Fundraising Campaign. We need to find individuals and foundations who will help us reach its goal. You can facilitate this process by supporting our speaking tour by organizing a time and venue, and inviting interested parties, for a presentation about our work. Our founder, Prapanna Smith, will personally go anywhere he is called to share our work and vision with prospective supporters.

Finally, and this is important, if you are, or know of anyone in our community who is, an educator who would be willing and able commit themselves spiritually and professionally to this vision for education, please let us know. We will be hiring up to 9 teachers as the school's student enrollment warrants.
