Support that Empowers Leaders
The Empowering Leaders Annual Fund provides the financial foundation for Alzar School to move sustainably forward. As a small school, your gift to the Empowering Leaders Annual Fund makes a significant impact and supports the school in three ways:
1. Teaching Faculty and Staff
Annual Fund gifts support competitive teacher salaries, helping us attract and retain outstanding instructors for our students. From coordinating dietary needs to helping a student work through a math problem to changing a flat tire on a dirt road in Chile, our teaching staff are amazingly understanding, flexible, and resilient individuals. They are the keystone of an Alzar School education.
Learn more about our faculty and staff.
2. Campus Growth and Maintenance
From zero yurts to eight! Since purchasing the land in 2011, Alzar School has grown tremendously. We are continually working to meet the infrastructure needs of our growing community. We depend on support from annual donors to build and maintain the intentional spaces in which our students and staff learn and live.

3. Financial Aid
Leadership potential knows no bounds. We strive to fully meet the demonstrated financial needs of all qualified and motivated students, but heavily depend on the Empowering Leaders Annual Fund to close the gap. Your gift to the Annual Fund enriches the Alzar School experience by enabling students from all backgrounds to gain leadership skills and confidence, ensuring a diverse student body that brings different experiences, beliefs, and ideas to the table.
