Giving Tuesday at Forest Park Montessori:

Enrich their Day, Enhance their World

Every Giving Tuesday contribution directly enhances the learning, play, and wonder for the children at Forest Park Montessori

At Forest Park Montessori, a child’s day is shaped by the environment around them — the materials they can touch, the spaces they can explore, the independence they can practice, and the moments of joy they discover along the way.

This Giving Tuesday, your gift directly enhances the learning, play, and wonder our children experience every day. New materials, refreshed outdoor spaces, and beautifully prepared environments allow our students to grow with confidence, curiosity, and purpose - while allowing our small neighborhood school to remain affordable and accessible to our families.

When you give, you’re not just donating. You’re placing something meaningful into a child’s hands - a tool for learning, a space for exploration, an invitation to independence.

What you can do now:

1.) Make your gift today!

2.) Check with your employer about matching your gift. We are registered on BrightFund as 'Urban Montessori Institute of St. Louis aka Forest Park Montessori'.

2.) Share this page with friends, family, and on social media! 😀

Where your contribution goes this Giving Tuesday:

We are raising funds for 6 big ticket items that each will make a major impact on our students here at FPM.

There are two items for shared, full-school use, two items for the Intro classroom, and two items for the Primary classroom.

Shared Items

Playhouse

$500

We have outgrown our well-loved outdoor play kitchen. This spacious, durable house will provide so many joyful opportunities for imaginative and cooperative play.

Raised Garden Bed

$200 with Install

Supports hands-on gardening, nutrional education, botany studies, and the care of living things.

Intro Classroom

Toddler Benches with Shoe Cubbies (2)

$460

The Intro students are in need of practical space to change and store their shoes. Order and function in the environment are essential to supporting the Intro child's development.

Toddler Sink with Basin

$1,950

Currently, the Intro students have to travel across the school to access water. Help us support the developmental needs and independence of the Intro students. This sink would be a game changer for both the children and teachers!

Primary Classroom

Montessori Map Cabinet

$130

The Montessori Maps are a beloved material in the Primary environment; helping children to deepen their understanding of geography through sensorial exploration. Our Map cabinent is broken from years of frequent use, limiting the children's ability to work with these very important materials.

Complete Bead Material Set and Cabinet

$705

A complete set of Math Bead materials and the accompanying cabinet provides Primary students the opportunity to expand their Mathematical understanding and has such an important role in the Primary Montessori curriculum.

Thank you for supporting Forest Park Montessori!

Every gift is so appreciated. Together we can provide an excellent Montessori experience for each child we serve.
