Kick us a few – Donate to Ithaca Freeskool!

Dear Friends of Freeskool,

We love having FREE classes for all, oh yes. But there are some small costs for running the Freeskool. With our funds we:

Print tons of calendars!

Get hard drives and equipment for DIY videos

Put on events with prizes, snacks and music

We’d like to give $ to our teachers for materials

You can now Donate to Freeskool on our donate page! And this season we could use your support. So kick us a few bucks (really, even $5 helps out a lot) and make our day. Thank you so much!
