At this point we want to ask for your support. More specifically, your contribution to our fundraising projects will enable DIS to continue its dedication to the DIS Mission, and ensure the future of continuing our history of academic excellence in international education. Your gift helps to build the future of DIS.
To create more opportunities for children and youth to “learn how to learn” in a school where diversity in the classroom is a normal way of life.
To ensure that more students in our school become critical and compassionate thinkers, so that they later become informed participants in local and world affairs
High percentage of DIS families are paying no or a reduced school fee. There is no selection of students based on their parent’s income. It is always about the student’s ability and if the student fits to the programme.
To support the economic development of Saxony, with DIS serving as a key “Standortfaktor”
To support a school that goes beyond intellectual rigour, by emphasizing the ideals of international understanding and responsible citizenship
To help create an international cultural centre in Dresden, where families of all nationalities can meet.
The school maintains a balanced budget, but thus far has not been able to set aside capital assessment fees as a capital reserve. Reason: Not-for-profit organization (GmbH mit Gemeinnützigkeitsstatus)
To meet the requirements for DIS as an International Baccalaureate World School, to be on the cutting edge of international education and to achieve accreditation status from CIS / NEASC, it is important to contribute to different school projects so that the school can ensure their quality.

We are raising funds for our Campus Greening Project, The concept was developed collaboratively between DIS students, who provided ideas for improvement of the schoolyard, and a student at the Technical University Dresden.
The project aims to:
The project will include removing areas of asphalt to plant directly in our schoolyard, facade greening, and raised planters for student participation and service learning. This will be done in phases.
Our schoolyard has been a construction site since the fall break (Oct 2024). The first phase of our campus greening project is officially underway! During the fall break, the asphalt was removed, and the ground was prepared for a greener, cooler, and more sustainable space for our school community.
In late October and early November, we will be planting trees, and our Primary students will have the chance to help plant shrubs and other low plants, furthering our mission to make the campus a more relaxing, climate-conscious environment. Our popular table tennis tables will be reintegrated into the new playground design and new benches will be set up.
This incredible initiative would not be possible without the generous support of our families, foundations, and corporate partners. THANK YOU to all who have supported the project so far!
The various sub-projects cost between 40,000 and 150,000 Euros, some of which can be subsidized by the SAB (Sächsische Aufbaubank). So far we have a pledged amount of 85,000 EUR from our community. This incredible initiative would not be possible without the generous support of our families, foundations, and corporate partners. THANK YOU to all who have supported the project so far!
Support us! Let's bring this project to life!
As part of our Campus Greening Project, we are initiating our "ADOPT A TREE"-campaign! We are planting 13 trees into our new green school yard area.
We are thrilled to announce that 12 out of the 13 trees have already been sponsored, thanks to the wonderful support of our “Adopt A Tree” donors (updated 13 Nov). A heartfelt thank you to everyone who has contributed so far!
If you would like to support this exciting project, please consider contributing! Groups can also collaborate to adopt a single tree together. We also have one "community tree" for those who want to donate but not for a whole tree.
All tree sponsors will receive a certificate and a small sign on “their” tree.
Here you will find a catalogue of all the trees that are available for sponsorship. Only the "Strauchige Rotkiefer" is available.
Thank you for helping us make this important project a reality!
