About the Sliding Scale FeesWritopia Lab is a 501(c)3 nonprofit that operates with limited resources, relying heavily on support from the community to sustain our programs. So we ask those who can afford to pay the full price to do so. Also, if you can afford to pay the full price in monthly installments, that would be preferred as well. However, we realize that not everyone can afford the fee, so we have determined a sliding scale that includes a range of tuition amounts. Since we do not require any supporting documentation, we hope that you are honest in your assessment. The amount paid over $175 per child can be claimed as a donation on your taxes. Our nonprofit tax i.d. number is 26-0835350.
Writopia Lab's fees cover the expenses of running a workshop program and allow us to provide generous scholarships and flexible sliding scale fees. If you wish to support Writopia Lab, please make a donation to help families afford our services.
