Help build

Every campus in history started with a first circle of builders.

Right now, Senior Campus is at the stage where help matters most and is easiest to see: land, water, septic, foundation, accessibility. The people who step in now are not donors to an institution — they are founders of a place.

We are looking for people who can help with land, construction planning, sponsorship, introductions, and volunteer coordination. Donations and project support are handled under Education On The Go Corp, a registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization (EIN: 92-1172505).

Phase one, drawn simply: land, water, a long accessible home, and a porch that faces the sun.

A real share of the survey, septic engineering, or accessibility design for the first long home.

Founder$18,000

A named part of phase one — a room, the porch, the garden — and a seat at the table as the campus takes shape.

Property and land donation criteria

What kind of property could help?

Ideal conversations involve a 5+ acre parcel in Upstate New York or the Tri-State area, zoning that can support community or residential use, and preferably water access or a wooded setting suitable for a summer campus of cabins. If you own — or know — such a place, one introduction can move the whole project forward by a year.

Where support goes

People are the mission. Land gives the mission a place to begin.

Early support goes to modular cabins, water, power, pathways, shared kitchen planning, common areas, gardens, porches, fire pits, accessibility, and site readiness — the unglamorous bones that make everything after them possible.
