At Springhouse, we believe education should not be a commodity and we strive to make sure that no family is turned away for financial reasons. Instead of tuition, we see your contribution as an investment in our vision and mission.
We aim to dismantle the notion of education as a commodity by radically shifting the way we see money. Please review Springhouse’s Economic Model for transparent information about our budget. Please consider what you can invest in this program.
