The NEOS Initiative

Neos Bayview Academy 5th grader explaining her creative idea for making the Bible “shine”!

Hi friends and family,
We're partnering with a San Francisco startup called Dearly for a special Charity Week from April 13–19. During that week, 100% of every dollar spent on Dearly goes directly to funding NEOS programs — including the Bayview Academy.
Some of you may remember Dearly — they're the ones who purchased artwork from our kids last year. Now they're giving back by donating all of their revenue for an entire week to support the school.
Here's how you can help. Go to joindearly.com and send something meaningful to someone you love:
🎬 Create a Film ($99) — Invite friends to record video messages for someone's birthday, retirement, graduation, or any milestone. Dearly turns them into a cinematic film. No app needed.
🎨 Send an Artwork ($24) — A handwritten message on artwork made by real children, mailed anywhere in the US.
🌱 Plant a Tree ($5) — A real tree planted in your friend's name with a beautiful digital experience.
Every penny goes to NEOS. Dearly is covering all of their own costs out of pocket. As long as you place your order during April 13–19, it counts — even if you schedule delivery for Mother's Day or another date. No promo code needed.
Dearly is in pre-launch beta, so you're among the first people in the world to experience it. If anything isn't perfect, they've committed to making it right — and the money still goes to the school.

Bible study in the Bayview every Wednesday. Women and children have been coming weekly to learn more and love each other.

At Neos Bayview Academy, learning is more than lessons — it’s joy, curiosity, and creativity rooted in God’s love. 💛
Today our students painted pumpkins, laughed with friends, and discovered that when we learn with wonder, we learn to love learning! 🍂📚

We’re raising lifelong learners who see God’s beauty in every subject and season. 🌱
