Shore Foundation Giving Day – A Tradition of Giving

Shore Foundation Giving Day – A Tradition of Giving

Our annual Giving Day is coming!

Much of what we have at Shore is thanks to the generosity of those who came before us. As we focus on “A Tradition of Giving”, we once again call on the Shore Community to lend its support.

Each year, the Shore Foundation holds its Annual Appeal Giving Day, inviting our community to contribute to key areas of the School.

This year, on Thursday 5 June, every dollar you donate to the Shore Foundation will be doubled, maximising the impact for both the School and our students.

For 24 hours, your donation will be matched by a generous donor and Old Boy of the School.

$100 will become $200

$250 will become $500

$1000 will become $2000, and so on.

The Power of Giving Day

Our first Giving Day was in 2018 when 385 donors came together to support the Country Boarders Bursary. This initiative was named the “385 Bursary” in honour of everyone who gave. Since then, this endowment has grown significantly, from supporting one family in 2018 to over 20 families in 2025.

Thanks to previous Giving Days, we’ve been able to:

  • Help fund the R A I Grant Centre
  • Expand our Indigenous Bursaries
  • Increase Staff Professional Development
  • Invest in future capital needs for the School

This Year’s Focus – 2025

In 2025, we seek your support across a range of means-tested bursaries as well as calling for contributions for Shore’s future capital projects. You can choose to support Bursaries or Future Capital needs. Both options are tax deductible.

Mark your calendar for Thursday 5 June, and join us in making a difference. Every gift, no matter the size, is greatly appreciated and valued.

You can also make your donation ahead of time (and your gift will still be doubled) by clicking here.

This is a wonderful way to start or continue your giving journey and give back to the areas of Shore that matter most to you.  

Thank you for being part of this tradition.
