Why donate?
Tuition payments are our largest source of income, but they don’t cover all of our operating costs. Some of these costs include teacher salaries and benefits, rent, basic classroom supplies, janitorial services, playground maintenance, professional growth, and scholarships. In order to keep our tuition prices low, we hold a number of fundraising events.
How to donate
Participate in our fundraisers! We offer a variety of fundraisers throughout the year. Participation is appreciated, but not required. Some require no additional spending, such as the Fred Meyer Rewards Program.
Make a tax-deductable donation. Mustard Seed Preschool is a 501(c)(3) organization. Donations to MSP are tax-deductible to the fullest extent allowed by the law. Our tax ID number is 87-1215369.

Give Lively
We have an amazing community, and want to reach out to families not to donate (unless you want to!), but to help spread the word. The MSP board has created this beautiful Give Lively profile for our school, and we would like to ask everyone in our community to help share it around social media, via emails with family and friends, or through any other means you may have.
The decision to crowd source funding was not taken lightly, but we run such a unique, wonderful program here, and want to continue to offer high quality early childhood education at a rate that families can afford, as well as FREE early intervention for families that need it, but we can't do that and have a viable building without asking for some help. Thank you so much for everything, the staff and myself are amazed at how our passion for this unique niche of education continues to grow as we meet so many wonderful, loving families on this journey!
