A little more than three months ago we sent out our appeal for donations in favour of the Waldorf kindergartens and schools that were in need because of the Corona closures. We are extremely grateful for the many donations that have reached us since then.
So far, we have received a total of €462,156.69 in donations and grants, of which €262,156.69 from individual donors and €200,000 from foundations. We received the contributions from the foundations at our request, earmarked for the worldwide Waldorf movement. After deducting the donations for emergency education of €53,145 and €2,927 earmarked individual donations, €406,084.69 remain for the worldwide Waldorf School and Waldorf Kindergarten movement.
The requests we have already received amount to €1,529,774 from 59 kindergartens and schools in 26 countries (as of 31st July). Due to this situation and the increasing demand, especially in the Latin American countries, which are currently firmly in the grip of the pandemic, it is very clear that we still have a lot of work to do.
