Support AMI Teacher Training

The MES Fund, Inc. is the first financial aid fund organized to benefit AMI teacher trainees. With the establishment of this fund, AMI/USA insures that qualified individuals seeking AMI training will not be excluded due to their financial circumstances.

There is no better way to support the work of Dr. Montessori and make a lasting contribution to children than by making a donation to the Margaret Elizabeth Stephenson (MES) Fund, Inc.

“As a Montessori child, I feel so privileged to have the opportunity to revisit the work I did as an elementary student. There have been so many “aha” moments of illumination, as unconscious memories of my own experiences with the materials are brought up to the surface in lectures and practicals.  It is so satisfying to be able to come back to this work as a teacher in training and absorb it on a whole new level (the fifth plane, one could say!). This training, while intense and challenging, has also been such a gift.”
