GIVING TO GGS
Our students are supported in their access to an exceptional education by the enduring generosity of our School community; a community that believes in the influence of education as a transformational strength.
We continue our strong focus on scholarships, which have the power to be life-changing, as they increase diversity within the School community and provide future students with a range of opportunities which they may otherwise be unable to access. Generous gifts from donors allow the School to provide hundreds of our secondary students with financial assistance through the Scholarship Programme.
Alongside our Scholarship Programme, renewal and development of School buildings and facilities continues.
Gifts to the Foundation can be made to the following funds:
GEELONG GRAMMAR SCHOOL ENDOWMENT FUND
The Endowment Fund was established by trust deed in 1977, building to its current value through generous gifts; transfers, at times, from the School; and investment returns. The Endowment Fund exists to secure the future of Geelong Grammar School through thoughtful investment and management of a corpus of mostly untied funds, and the application of these fund to support initiatives that contribute to the prosperity of the School now and into the future.
GEELONG GRAMMAR SCHOOL SCHOLARSHIP FUND
The Scholarship Fund was established in 2008 as a deductible gift recipient endorsed by the Australian Taxation Office. The Scholarship Fund exists to provide funding towards scholarships, ensuring the opportunity of an exceptional education at Geelong Grammar School can be made available to all learners.
GEELONG GRAMMAR SCHOOL BUILDING FUND
The Building Fund provides the opportunity for our community to provide tax deductible gifts to support the physical infrastructure of the School. It is a vital source of funding to ensure that students today and into the future have the best possible learning, living and enabling environments we can provide.
GEELONG GRAMMAR SCHOOL LIBRARY FUND
Our Libraries are thriving centres of learning and creativity, integral to the way the entire School functions. The Library Fund supports the ongoing development and renewal of these important spaces.
