TODAY'S THE DAY!!⁠
⁠
Support the Hearts and Minds of Tomorrow: Donate Today to Friends of AWS!⁠
⁠
At Friends of Awakening Spirit School (FOAWS), we're more than just a nonprofit—we're a community of passionate educators, families, and supporters united by one powerful goal: to nurture the minds and spirits of highly sensitive, gifted children.⁠
⁠
When you donate to FOAWS, you're not just contributing to a school—you're empowering an entire generation. Your generosity helps support our unique homeschool collaborative, where children thrive through personalized learning, meaningful field trips, and an environment that honors their sensitivity and intellectual gifts.⁠
⁠
The impact? Your donation helps provide transportation for week-long roadschool trips—experiential learning that takes our students on transformative journeys, expanding their minds, connecting them to the world, and fostering independence. And the best part? The shuttle bus is provided at no cost to our school or families, thanks to your support.⁠
⁠
Gifted and highly sensitive children often struggle to find educational environments that truly meet their needs. By supporting Friends of AWS, you help create a space where these exceptional learners can flourish—where curiosity is celebrated, and every child’s potential is recognized.⁠
⁠
Donate today, and help us continue offering a future where every child’s gift shines brightly.⁠

Give the Gift of Understanding: Support Families of Highly Sensitive and Gifted Children⁠
⁠
Highly sensitive and gifted children often face challenges that many others don’t understand. Struggling with low self-esteem, anxiety, and even self-harm, these children often feel isolated or misunderstood in traditional school environments. Many refuse to attend school altogether, unable to cope with the demands of a one-size-fits-all education system.⁠
⁠
At Friends of Awakening Spirit School (FOAWS), we’re committed to changing that reality. By supporting our school, you’re not just making a donation—you’re providing a lifeline for families who need a place where their child’s unique strengths and sensitivities are seen, valued, and nurtured.⁠
⁠
Your gift helps fund the maintenance of our homeschool collaborative shuttle bus, enabling families to participate in enriching week-long roadschool trips that allow their children to connect with the world in ways that traditional classrooms cannot offer. These trips provide hands-on learning, growth, and the opportunity to flourish in a supportive, non-judgmental environment.⁠
⁠
For children who’ve faced isolation, burnout, and rejection in conventional schools, your donation offers hope—hope for a future where their gifts are celebrated, where they’re given the space to learn at their own pace, and where they can thrive without fear of judgment.⁠
⁠
Donate today to help provide a safe, understanding environment for children who need it most. Together, we can make sure no child feels alone on their educational journey.⁠

Give the Gift of Understanding and Growth: Support Highly Sensitive and Gifted Children⁠
⁠
Highly sensitive and gifted children often face challenges that are invisible to others—struggles with self-esteem, anxiety, and even self-harm. Many feel isolated and misunderstood in traditional school environments, and some may refuse to attend altogether, unable to fit into a one-size-fits-all educational system. These children often find themselves rejected or burned out, leaving them to navigate a world that doesn’t understand their unique needs.⁠
⁠
At Friends of Awakening Spirit School (FWAS), we are dedicated to providing a solution. By donating to our cause, you help create a safe and supportive space where these exceptional children can thrive. Your support directly impacts the lives of families who need an educational community that honors their child’s sensitivities, intellect, and emotional well-being.⁠
One key way your donation helps is by maintaining our shuttle bus, which enables families to participate in transformative week-long roadschool trips. These hands-on, experiential learning opportunities allow children to engage with the world around them, building confidence, resilience, and excitement for learning—things they might not find in a traditional classroom.⁠
⁠
Your contribution doesn’t just support a bus—it supports a vision where gifted and sensitive children are celebrated for their unique qualities, not pushed into a mold that doesn’t fit. With your help, we can ensure that no child feels alone, rejected, or misunderstood in their educational journey.⁠
Donate today to help these children see their worth, explore the world, and realize their true potential. Together, we can provide the hope and understanding they need to thrive.⁠

One of the benefits of microschooling is that we get to choose our own schedules! Today is a “Halloween Hangover” day-off for families to rest and run off the effects of all of the sugar from yesterday’s holiday! Here are some moments from our Halloween pumpkin carving and costume party! (And a moment from our field trip to see Ragamala Dance Company in the morning). #microschool #microschooling #microschools #awakeningspiritschool #halloweenparty #homeschoolhalloween #homeschoolcollective
