FCS Fundraising
Fundraising for Friends Community School
Fundraising is an essential activity, not only because of the sense of community that grows when we work together, but also because tuition does not cover the full cost of educating our children at FCS. Your active participation is critical in helping bridge the gap and in keeping tuition costs down.

Help Pave a Path to the FCS Playground
TFCS is hoping to raise the funds through the Annual Giving Fund to install benches, a chess table, a trash can, and some plantings to for this fun, creative and inviting playground for children ages 5 to 14. You can help the FCS playground by purchasing an FCS brick, paver or square that will literally pave the way to the playground. Consider joining with family, friends, or classmates to commemorate a person, an event, or share a thought or feeling. The bricks are locally made.
Details are in the flyer, please download a flyer.
Many different elements were required to meet the physical needs of children with such a wide age range. We also want to add continuous elements to the playground as funds become available, especially stand-alone structures for children of specific ages.
