Spring Benefit & 40th Anniversary Celebration

Spring Benefit & 40th Anniversary Celebration

JOIN US FOR A FUN-FILLED 40th CELEBRATION!

Waldorf School of the Peninsula is throwing an all-community bash in honor of our 40th year! From our founders and alums to current parents, faculty and staff, it’s time for everyone who makes up our vibrant community to come and celebrate this milestone.

COME ONE, COME ALL

We’ve slashed the ticket price in half to make the event more accessible to all. Tickets are $100 each, the true cost per person for the event. If the cost of the ticket is prohibitive, please let us know and reach out to events@waldorfpeninsula.org. And thanks to those of you who are able to sponsor tickets for others!

FOOD & DRINK

Instead of a formal seated dinner, we’ll enjoy delicious bites from local vendors including:

  • Parent-curated and donated wine, beer, and cocktails.
  • Tru Gourmet: Handcrafted Dim Sum made with seasonal and local ingredients
  • Mom’s Biryani: Indian and South Asian bites and live chaat station!
  • Joe’s Taco Truck: Delicious and fresh taco station, hot off the grill.
  • Falafelle: Pita bites, hummus, and babaganouj by parent-run local Falafelle, a WSP favorite.
  • Parent-curated desserts, coffee, and tea.
  • Vegan, vegetarian, and gluten-free options available.

LIVE MUSIC

  • WSP’s High School Jazz Club
  • No Bad Dayz (Featuring WSP Faculty Marina Budrys & Christopher Otte)

Four Ways to turn Shopping into Giving for WSP

Kora Feder | WSP Writer

Did you know that when you shop for yourself and your loved ones, you could be generating donations to WSP—at no cost to you? We encourage you to consider these four easy ways to support the school in a big way, with little effort on your part. It’s community actions like these that give us the added resources to continually enrich our programs. Thank you!

Amazon Smile
We know some of you are moving away from shopping on Amazon. We also know how convenient Amazon can be, and that many members of our community are active users. Amazon will automatically route .5% of your spending to WSP if you shop through Amazon Smile. It’s the same Amazon experience, you’ll just be donating to the school as you shop!

To get started: Make sure you’re logged into your Amazon account and go to smile.amazon.com.
Click ‘Get Started’ and search ‘Waldorf School of the Peninsula,’ add us and you’re done! Bookmark smile.amazon.com and remember to shop at that link

RaiseRight (aka Scrip Gift Cards)
This program has accumulated more names than we can count but it boils down to a very simple concept: gift card fundraising. Buy a gift card to a major brand (Home Depot, Apple, Delta, Gap, Starbucks and more), and then use the cards to shop. The companies give back a percentage of your gift card spending to WSP. Earn 16% of your purchases at LL Bean, 15% at Athleta, for example, and yes, 8% at Krispy Kreme. You can start shopping right away with digital gift cards or have physical cards mailed to you.

To get started: Go to RaiseRight/enroll and enter WSP’s code: C82FAE382474L.

Sports Basement
Locally owned Sports Basement offers 10% of purchases made by its members (Basementeers) to a charity of your choice. You can join the Basementeer membership program for a one-time $25 fee. Make sure you select Waldorf School of the Peninsula as your charity. Once you become a Basementeer, every time you shop at their stores, Sports Basement gives you 10% off and will donate 10% to WSP. If you already have a Basementeer account and want to update your charity beneficiary to WSP, email friends@sportsbasement.com.

Thank you for considering these cost-free ways to contribute to our beloved WSP community. If you have questions about these programs, please contact development@waldorfpeninsula.org.
