We want to keep the tradition of excellence and upward trajectory at Muirlands. The goal is for every family to participate in the fundraising which primarily occurs from August to October 2025. All donors will receive a tax donation letter and recognition in our newsletter and donor wall for your contribution to the campaign.
This year, the requested donation is $500 per student. This $500 amount represents an investment in the education of your child to cover the benefits your child will receive throughout all nine months of the school year. Muirlands Gives accepts donations in the form of check, Venmo, stock donations, and website donations with credit card, as well as corporate matching donations.
Thank you for your generosity! Any questions? Please contact giving@muirlandsfoundation.org
P.S. This year parents who donate $800 or more to the campaign, will be invited to the Muirlands Gives cocktail party on October 17, 2025, hosted at one of our families’ homes in La Jolla only two miles from the school. We hope that you can join us for a fun night of music and socializing with administration and faculty to celebrate the results of the campaign and to thank those parents who have donated at or above the $800 level.
