Waves Business Directory
The Waves Business Directory launched in Fall 2020 to highlight the vibrant small businesses owned by SWS families and friends. Listings do not imply an endorsement but a desire to support the financial health and friendly spirit of the many entrepreneurs in our school community. If you are a Sacramento Waldorf School family, own a small business, and would like to be included in the directory, please submit the form below.

Grindstone Campaigns offers direct voter contact & community engagement strategies that win. The Grindstone team has worked on successful field campaigns for over 15 years. We have worked at every level - local mayoral races, state legislative races, top DCCC red-to-blue races, CA statewide propositions, the Iowa caucuses, and the 2020 Biden-Harris coordinated campaign in Wisconsin. Field outreach is a wonderful and wild grind, and we love to tackle the unique challenges found in each race, no matter how big or small.
If you are an SWS family and have an issue you are passionate about, want to represent your community, or have a friend who's running for elected office, let us know. We'll get you rolling ourselves or point you in the direction of someone who can.
