Dear Friend of Greenhouse,

For generations, Greenhouse has been a school where early childhood is celebrated. We’ve remained steadfast in our conviction that children learn best in playful interactions with people, materials and ideas. Protecting children’s right to a joyful childhood is the very heart of our story – and it is a legacy worth championing.

That legacy belongs to all of us. It lives in the memories of our children that once painted, pretended and played in our classrooms; in the parents that gathered together to toast the new school year under the twinkle lights hung in the big yard; and in the faculty and staff whose warmth, expertise and dedication made each day meaningful. Though ones personal time at Greenhouse may be brief in years, the memories we make and the impact it leaves last a lifetime.

Your Annual Fund gift helps to keep that legacy strong.

Contributions to the Annual Fund help us sustain the quality of our program today while investing in Greenhouse’s future. Your generosity supports the people, places and opportunities that make Greenhouse special. While Greenhouse honors its long-proven history, we must also continue to grow and evolve. Annual Fund support allows us to invest in our program and ensure that Greenhouse remains vibrant, relevant and true to its mission in a rapidly dynamic and shifting early childhood education landscape.

Every gift matters. Together — current and alumni parents, grandparents and friends of the school — can all help Greenhouse’s commitment to preserve what matters most: the joy of early childhood, the richness of learning through play and the exceptional quality that has defined Greenhouse across a century. We invite you to make a gift to Greenhouse’s Annual Fund and join us in carrying this extraordinary legacy forward. Your participation in our appeal is a meaningful display of your own belief in the value of early childhood and recognition of the importance of a school like Greenhouse.

On behalf of our children, teachers, and the generations of Greenhouse families who have helped shape this remarkable school, thank you for remembering Greenhouse, believing in its mission, and being part of its future.

With sincere gratitude,

Renee Mease and the Board of Trustees
