Annual Fund 19/20

The German School of San Francisco Annual Fund provides the opportunity to contribute to the  language learning environment in which children and adults of multicultural backgrounds experience “Sprachvergnügen,” the joy of learning the German language and the culture and traditions of Germany, Austria, and Switzerland.

The Annual Fund runs from September to June and is an important element of the German School’s fundraising efforts. It supports many aspects of the school and enables us to invest in our programs, staff and ultimately, our students. The Annual funds allows us to improve science and technology resources, to support the general operating budget and the school’s greatest needs. In a nutshell, it helps us offer quality academic and cultural education while keeping tuition at a point that is accessible for everyone.

Tuition alone does not cover the cost of educating resulting in a funding gap of about $350 per student. We receive some grants from the German government and other organizations. With the increase in number of students to 152 this year and another expected increase in rent for the school,  each student costs the school $350 more than the tuition covers.

Every gift of any amount is important and your involvement allows us to sustain the qualities that makes our school unique within the diverse cultural landscape of the Bay Area.
