State funding for overnight outdoor education was eliminated from the state budget. Your gift supports the Washington Outdoor Schools Coalition’s work to organize communities, advocate in Olympia, and restore sustainable public funding so outdoor school remains accessible to students across Washington.

Your contribution supports WOSC’s statewide advocacy, coalition building, public education, and community engagement efforts to ensure students across Washington—regardless of income, background, or geography—can access high-quality outdoor education.

The Washington School Principals’ Education Foundation (WSPEF) serves as the fiscal sponsor for the Washington Outdoor Schools Coalition (WOSC).

Where does the money go?

Who receives my gift?

Your donation goes to the Washington School Principals’ Education Foundation (WSPEF), a registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit (EIN 91-1153112). WSPEF is WOSC’s fiscal sponsor: it receives and administers gifts made to WOSC and makes sure they are used for WOSC’s work.

What does it pay for?

WOSC’s work to restore public funding for outdoor school: advocacy in Olympia, building the statewide coalition, public education and communications, and organizing supporters. Gifts fund that work, not individual students’ outdoor school trips.

Is my gift tax-deductible?

Yes, as permitted by law. Because WSPEF is a 501(c)(3), your gift can be deducted to the extent the law allows. Keep your email receipt for your records.
