Compass Academy is a non-profit early childhood education program that prioritizes the health and wellbeing of children as they learn life skills and academics through the lens of real life experiences in their most natural environment – a homestead.
Creating a new kind of learning model is hard work, and expensive in the beginning. Our community of families and students is growing rapidly, and we want to partner with like-minded brands who support our mission and would benefit from gaining brand visibility within our large community of like-minded parents who value health and wellbeing for their children and families.
The bonus to partnering with us financially – all donations to our program are 100% tax-deductible.
Purpose: Funds from these sponsors will support Compass Academy with the continued development of an edible learning garden that both teaches and feeds the kids in our program, and support local pollinators. We are in constant need of funds for more seeds, soil, gardening tools, irrigation supplies, lesson supplies and garden maintenance.

Gold Sponsor — $1,000 / year

Our foundation supports the creation of employment, volunteer, childcare, wellness and education opportunities for the greater Charlottesville region.
We are dedicated to improving the health of the land we occupy through responsible land stewardship including native plantings, composting, responsible water management, creating wildlife habitats, and more.
We are holding a vision for improved childhood education so that our youth have a stronger foundation for thriving in our turbulent world.
Our campus serves as a site for animal adoptions and rescues. We have adopted goats and kittens, rescued abandoned calves, nursed a pigeon back to health, and are open to other animal adoptions and rescues!
When families have good physical and mental health, communities are happier and economies are stronger. Our programs support wellbeing and provide education and support around naturally healthy living.
We are thrilled that you are interested in partnering with us continue to develop this program and bring this new kind of learning environment to a broader audience. Please email us to learn more and move forward with sponsorship details: thecompassctr@gmail.com.
