How can I support Hardison Mill Schoolhouse?

There are many ways you can support our efforts at Hardison Mill Schoolhouse. From large or small financial donations to prayers, all support is welcome and appreciated.
Our desire is to be a blessing to our community and provide a non traditional learning
experience to local children of all socioeconomic backgrounds. There are many families in
our area who can not afford the expense of private schooling. We are very prayerful that our
efforts to make a difference for our children, their families, our community, and the world will
be supported by those of you who believe in our vision. Our hope is to be able to establish
endowments that will assist with tuition for those children who would otherwise never have
these opportunities. If you would like to help establish an endowment for one or more of our
children, please click here. (add button - Establish an endowment).
