Financial Aid

Our mission at Quiet Heart Wilderness School is to get as many students outside and connected with nature as possible.  It is our hope that the financial burden of program registration should not be a barrier to participation. As such, we have a limited amount of financial assistance available for students.  These funds are made available both by Quiet Heart and donations from our Quiet Heart community.

Financial Assistance Eligibility

While all may apply, priority will be given to students who qualify for Free/Reduced Lunch or are enrolled in Head Start. Financial aid will be distributed monthly.  Once funds are depleted, no other aid will be available. Applicants may choose how much assistance they need on a sliding scale (indicated below).  In addition, recipients may choose to give back to Quiet Heart if they are able, donating their time for activities such as marketing and supply procurement.   However, we recognize that not all families are able to donate time and it is NOT a requirement for receiving financial aid, nor will your response impact any financial aid decisions.

If you would like to apply for financial aid, you may do so here.

Application forms are also available by emailing the office at [email protected].

If you would like to register to save your child’s spot in a camp before financial aid is distributed, please contact [email protected] and we can help!
