Fund a Need

We are very grateful to our many families, friends, and benefactors who donate to our Annual Appeal and support fund raising events at Oakland Steiner School. The school has a "wish list" of items that are not covered in the annual budget or by fund raising events. if you would like to help us cross off items on our wish list by making a donation of time, talent or financial resources, please contact our Outreach and Development Coordinator, Mary Chris Foxworthy, to discuss your thoughts.
