Inspired Giving – Community Fundraising Success Posted on Thursday 16 May 2019 Inspired Giving – Community Fundraising Success Inspired Giving – Community Fundraising Success Inspired Giving – Community Fundraising Success On Thursday 9 May at 9.00am we commenced our Inspired Giving campaign seeking our community’s support to fund the remarkable Inspiring Innovations project, the most ambitious in our history, to provide world-class building and resourcing that will inspire innovation in our current and future students and teachers. For 24 hours only, every dollar that was donated was doubled thanks to our passionate community members who matched contributions dollar for dollar, inspiring all of our community to join together to reach and exceed our fundraising goal of $400,000. We would like to thank all those who volunteered their time throughout the campaign, including parents, Old Collegians, staff, and council members who supported us in achieving our goal. Special thanks to our generous matcher donors and to all members of our wonderful community, including students, who donated to the Inspired Giving campaign. Thank you! Jen Neate, Chair of the St Leonard’s College Foundation, shares that with our community’s support and the generosity of our matcher donors, we exceeded our 24 hour fundraising goal of $400,000!
