Annual Fund
The Power of a Gift
The Annual Fund is a yearly campaign that comprises the majority of gifts received by Shawnigan in any given School Year. A gift to the Annual Fund is one that is typically repeated by a donor on a yearly basis. Gifts vary in size from $20 to as much as $25,000, and can be directed towards any number of different causes.
Your gift to this year’s Annual Fund can help support:
- The Headmaster’s Fund – Perhaps the most powerful gift, you help the Headmaster by giving him funds to use in the best possible way when opportunities arise.
- The Shawnigan Fund – Provide the gift of education to one of every four Shawnigan students who would otherwise not be able to be a part of the Shawnigan experience.
- E.D.G.E. Leadership Trips – Allow our students to travel to third world countries and learn the gift of giving back by supporting local community initiatives and providing them with a truly global education.
- Tour Assistance Funds – Help send our rowing programme on their annual trip to the National Championships in St. Catherines, Ontario, or our Senior Rugby team on tour during the March Break.
- Program Enhancements (The “Wish List”) – Purchase new lab equipment for the science department, send a boarding house on a special outing to promote friendships and bonding, or support one of the many other areas of the School you believe in.
Whatever your choice, the end result is the same: your gift to the Annual Fund makes a difference in the lives of our students. If you would like to speak to someone about making a gift to Shawnigan, please contact us at 250-743-6235 or via email.
