嫘祖 is credited with teaching silk cultivation through mulberry trees. The trees fed silkworms, the silkworms made silk, and silk helped sustain a civilization. Small contributions, patiently gathered, can support work that lasts beyond any one donor.
The Mulberry Fund is the donation pool that supports Leizu Scholars. It gives students access to Leizu Academy when tuition is out of reach. Every contribution funds teaching hours for scholar students.
What your contribution does 用
One scholar receiving one full year of weekly one-on-one instruction at Leizu Academy costs roughly $10,800. The same as a regular Forest Year. Every amount contributes to a scholar’s learning.
- $75 funds one full session of one-on-one teaching
- $480 funds a Starter block (4 sessions)
- $900 covers one month of weekly Forest Year sessions

Where the money goes
- Roughly 95% of donations go directly to scholar tuition. When scholars pay $0 for a session, donations cover that teaching cost.
- Roughly 5% covers Stripe processing fees (~3% per transaction) plus the platform's basic operating costs (calendar, email service, hosting).
- Zero goes to marketing, advertising, or fundraising overhead. The fund is currently outside charitable registration, so contributions do not receive tax receipts. Each contribution directly supports a scholar’s learning.
I publish a quarterly summary of donations received and scholar sessions funded. Email me to review the books.
On charity registration. The Mulberry Fund operates within Leizu Academy, a sole proprietorship under Saul Nassau. Canadian charity registration takes 12 to 24 months and may follow as the program grows. For tax purposes, contributions currently have the status of gifts.
Other ways to help 助
- Refer a scholar. If you know someone who would benefit from this program, send them to the application page.
- Spread the word. Most scholar applicants arrive through personal referrals. The program grows through community support.
- Become a teacher. Teachers in Leizu subjects can dedicate hours to scholar students through the teaching application. That support gives through time.
