Hershey Receives $300K Grant
Hershey Montessori School received its second and final payment of $150,000 from The Dekko Foundation, completing a two-year $300,000 grant award titled “Rebuilding Capacity for Sustainability.”
The capacity-building investment strengthens Hershey Montessori’s enrollment and retention efforts, placing the school on a new upward trajectory toward long-term financial sustainability. With the funds,
Hershey will expand its marketing plan, deepen domestic and international engagement and implement campus-based retention strategies.
“Our mission is to provide beautiful Montessori environments, where learning and work are integrated within a community experience engaging the intellectual, moral and social development of children and
adolescents from birth to 18 years,” said interim Head of School Diana Le Sieur. “We are deeply grateful for The Dekko Foundation’s partnership in this mission.”
Through this investment, Hershey Montessori School will continue to guide children and adolescents in developing a strong sense of self, equipping them to thrive in changing times and preparing them to contribute to the world as stewards of peace and humanity.
