Join the Hammer Montessori Foundation – We Need You!

The Hammer Montessori Foundation (HMF) is at a critical crossroads, with key leadership roles unfilled. We need parents and caregivers to step up and help sustain the programs that enrich our children’s education.

Why Volunteer?

  • Support programs like art, music, and field trips
  • Build connections with other families
  • Be a role model for your child
  • Help shape the future of HMF 

No experience needed—just a willingness to contribute.
