Thank you for your generous contributions to our 39 Days of Giving Campaign! Your support has set a school record for one of the highest amounts of money raised, enabling us to fulfill our mission in supporting Design39Campus creating life-ready thought leaders who elevate humanity.
If you have not yet been able to make your commitment to the 39 Days of Giving campaign, it’s not too late. While we are not asking anymore, we gladly accept donations throughout the year.
We are profoundly grateful for your invaluable support and commitment to making D39C a high-quality and supportive learning environment.
What is the 39 Days of Giving campaign?
The 39 Days of Giving campaign is the annual direct-ask fundraiser organized by The D39C Collaborative. This year, the campaign will run August 22 – September 29, 2024.
What is The D39C Collaborative?
The D39C Collaborative is a 100% volunteer-run, federally recognized 501(c)(3) (EIN 47-2102844) foundation & parent organization designed to be responsive to the needs of students, parents, and Learning Experience Designers (teachers) at Design39Campus.
How much should we contribute?
That is up to you! We invite families to give a gift of their treasure and/or time.
Treasure: We appreciate and value any contribution, no matter the amount. Our suggested contribution is $639 per student in the effort to reach our goal of raising $330,000 this year. Your contribution to the 39 Days of Giving campaign helps ensure that we provide a thriving learning community for our designers.
If you prefer to mail or drop off a check at the Welcome Center, please ensure it is made out to “The D39C Collaborative” and indicate the names of your Designer(s) on the memo line.
All donations are fully tax-deductible and voluntary. A donation is not required to participate in any school activity.
Time: We ask all parents to volunteer at least once during the school year. Volunteering can include spending time in your child’s classroom, helping at school events, serving as a traffic guard, joining a committee, preparing an activity for a LED, and much more.
We are striving for 100% participation from D39C families! At Design39Campus, we are all about our community collaborating and elevating humanity. Our ambition is that all parents participate, no matter what they are able to contribute.
Will my employer match my donation?
Probably. Last year, we raised ~$80,000 from corporate matching!
Where do the funds from 39 Days of Giving go?
The funds raised support a variety of needs, such as:
-
School supplies – that’s right, you don’t need to purchase school supplies for your student!
-
Music – all the instruments in the music room have been provided by The D39C Collaborative with donations made during previous 39 Days of Giving campaigns.
-
Technology subscriptions and devices
-
Books
-
Social-emotional support programs
-
Physical education supplies

LED and staff gifts for birthdays, holidays, teacher appreciation, and the end of the year – you read correctly, you don’t need to purchase gifts for your students’ LEDs! The Collaborative takes care of that for you! Though, a thank you note to your designer’s LED at these special times is always appreciated.
-
Supplemental staffing and many others not covered by the limited public funds available to the district.
