Families in our Explorer West community are navigating real and immediate safety concerns and financial strain. The Community Support Fund is an opportunity for our families to support one another through these challenges. Your donation provides families with short-term assistance with essential needs like groceries, utilities, and housing-related expenses.

Help make an Explorer West education accessible to children throughout our community for years to come.ALL DONATIONS MADE IN THROUGH JUNE 30, 2026 WILL BE MATCHED 200% through the generosity of an anonymous philanthropic foundation. At Explorer West, we are proud of the amount of financial aid we offer. However, though we provide more aid as a percent of tuition revenue than most other schools in the PNW, we are unable to meet the needs of all families that apply.Every dollar donated to the Rick Marting Financial Aid Endowment helps us close that gap. The Endowment is permanent and is dedicated to providing financial aid. Your gift today will work indefinitely to provide opportunity to students in the years ahead.

YOU make a difference for every student, every day! As a financial supporter of Explorer West, you make a meaningful impact on our students' experience. Your generosity enriches and enhances our program far beyond what is possible by tuition dollars alone.A gift of any size helps us reach our goal of 100% participation among members of our community. A monthly gift is a great way to participate in the Compass Fund! The date of your initial gift will set the date for future monthly payments - for example, if you donate on October 2, your following gifts will be paid on November 2, December 2, and so on. Choose a day of the month that works best for you. On behalf of all the students, teachers, and staff at Explorer West, THANK YOU for your belief in our program. Your support means the world to us.
