Fundraising and grants are a significant resource for Bethany Busy Bee, as we strive to keep our tuition and fees affordable. Our income from tuition and fees only covers 90% of our operational expenses, so other streams of revenue are essential.
We utilize the fundraisers to cover the costs of materials, food, prizes, and personnel for the family programs provided.
For several years we have received a grant from the Temple Hoyne Buell Foundation, which provides tuition assistance for families in difficult circumstances. In order to receive this grant, The Buell Foundation requires Busy Bee to obtain matching funds– we raise these matching funds through our fundraising efforts.
We understand everyone is in different circumstances, so we provide various types of opportunities to support Busy Bee, many of which are at no or little cost to you. Even if you’re not able to support Busy Bee through our fundraisers, we ask that you help us get the word out about our fundraisers by sharing with family and friends. Every donation is a huge blessing, and we strive to be good stewards by using every dollar to provide the best education for your children.
