Student Giving Day - plain clothes and gold coin donation

Wednesday 26 June

On Wednesday 26 June, all students from Kindergarten to Year 12 are invited to participate in a plain clothes day to support the School’s annual giving program, Friends Together. This year we are raising funds for our needs-based scholarship, The Friends’ Fellowship, which since 2018 has enabled six students, without means, to access a Friends’ education. Money raised this year will enable a new student to start in 2025. Please remember a gold coin donation. Together, we can all make a difference.

 

"As a recipient of support from the Friends’ community, I express my heartfelt gratitude to those who give to help students like me and I encourage everyone to give to Friends Together 2024."Sarah Chick (Jack), Class of 2020

 

Community donations are also now open. Visit www.giving.friends.tas.edu.au for more information and to donate.
