Sponsorship

Sponsor A Healthy Classroom @ Compass Academy

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 aligned companies who support our mission and would benefit from gaining brand visibility within our large community of like-minded parents who value local living, a strong work ethic, and a healthy lifestyle for their children and families.

The bonus to partnering with us financially – all donations to our program are 100% tax-deductible.
