Your support makes it possible for students to attend Link, explore global citizenship, complete service projects, and participate in a handcrafted education.
What this really means is that your gift helps all students see and achieve their full potential, deepen their link to the Divine, and sharpen the tools they’ll use for the rest of their lives.
Tuition Assistance
The Link School is committed to providing financial assistance to each student in need. Our generous donors help us raise over $224,000 every year to make a Link education possible. Families pay up to $38,000 for annual tuition and count on gifts like yours to raise the full $76,000 needed for the year.
Letters of Gratitude
Dear Sponsors,
I have gone to many, many different schools, but I just never found the perfect fit. After seventh grade I never stayed at any school longer than a year, but now at Link, I wish I could stay forever. Thank-you so much for making this school possible, sponsors, it has changed my life.
Dear Sponsors,
Link was such a big change in setting, people, and way of thought. The teachers at my old school didn’t care half as much as the teachers do at Link. Every single teacher at Link makes me strive to do my best. I honestly don’t know where I would be without this school. Now I’m giving my eternal gratitude to you as the people who make this change possible. Thank you for allowing me to start with a clean slate.
Dear Sponsors,
Link means so much to me. It is a place for growth and healing, and to discover myself. It gives me a chance to make mistakes and learn from them. This is a place where I have constant support and where I’m not afraid to be vulnerable.The opportunity to grow spiritually, physically, and mentally is something I never got at home, but it’s something I get here. Thank you so much for everything you do for me and for this school.
