We are deeply touched<br />
and grateful to the Moser<br />
Family Foundation and<br />
their thoughtful and<br />
generous contributions to<br />
Maine Coast’s students.<br />
Over the past two decades the<br />
foundation has championed<br />
every step of the School’s<br />
creation, development, and<br />
sustainability. The foundation’s<br />
passion for educating the whole<br />
“being” continues to make this<br />
education accessible for all<br />
children and has translated<br />
into supporting families and<br />
students, as well as our facilities<br />
and faculty over many years.<br />
Philanthropic Stewardship<br />
A LETTER FROM LAURA BONARRIGO, DEVELOPMENT DIRECTOR<br />
We are grateful for<br />
all the ways donors<br />
contribute to the School<br />
from cash gifts that<br />
fill immediate funding<br />
needs to major and<br />
planned gifts that will<br />
build our Endowment<br />
and make future<br />
dreams come true.<br />
Joining Maine Coast in the middle<br />
of our academic school year, I<br />
have been so impressed with all I<br />
have learned about the community.<br />
I’ve met parents deeply committed to<br />
Maine Coast and Waldorf education as<br />
they volunteer their time and talents<br />
in a myriad of ways to make sure<br />
the School is vibrant and welcoming.<br />
The faculty and staff are not only<br />
committed to their classrooms and<br />
this unique education, they are<br />
also deeply engaged in the School’s<br />
reaccreditation process, asking<br />
important questions and assessing<br />
where we are as a community and<br />
where change is necessary. And of<br />
course, I’ve been so impressed with<br />
the students; they have showcased<br />
their academic work through song,<br />
dance, theater, sports, and artistry<br />
everywhere I’ve turned.<br />
As the new Development Director, I<br />
have been privy to the most interesting<br />
conversations from every facet of<br />
the community including alums and<br />
major donors. These conversations<br />
also center around where we are<br />
as a community today and where<br />
we want to go next? The questions<br />
and conversations are thoughtful,<br />
important, and promising. There<br />
is much to consider - and much to<br />
celebrate. I am deeply moved by the<br />
thoughtfulness and excitement as we<br />
continue to emerge from COVID-19<br />
and into the next stage of development<br />
for the community at large.<br />
One realization keeps coming up - the<br />
School as an institution is moving<br />
from literally building a campus and<br />
erecting new buildings into a period of<br />
growth that will sustain and shepherd<br />
the School to the next generation.<br />
In order to sustain and nurture this<br />
transition, I ask each and every one<br />
of you to be involved even more. You<br />
may have literally built this School<br />
(and I’ve seen photos of you doing<br />
so!). Now it is time to stop and think<br />
about how you fit into the next stage<br />
of development.<br />
One realization keeps coming<br />
up - the School as an institution<br />
is moving from literally building<br />
a campus and erecting new<br />
buildings into a period of<br />
growth that will sustain and<br />
shepherd the School to the<br />
next generation.<br />
The stewardship of Maine Coast<br />
Waldorf School falls upon everyone in<br />
the community. I invite you to consider<br />
making <strong>MCWS</strong> your number one<br />
philanthropic endeavor. In order to<br />
help move Maine Coast into the next<br />
iteration of its development, we are all<br />
tasked with finding our place and the<br />
ways in which we can ensure that our<br />
School continues to thrive and can live<br />
up to its mission. This School is truly<br />
amazing with its beautiful campus,<br />
buildings, heart-filled education, and<br />
smiling children, so I ask you… where<br />
do we go from here?<br />
