An appeal to donate to our Annual Fund

Meridian World School relies on financial contributions from families to maintain teacher IB training, outfit our libraries with books and programs, allow for additional counselors to meet student needs. We're still $100,000 short of our goal to fund these vital needs. Can you help with a donation of $300 or more?
