Donations to the Foundation are vital to the School's strategy of delivering the highest possible standards of holistic education. They will also help us achieve our aspiration of being globally recognised as a leading comprehensive school that that shapes young people who impact their communities and their world for good.

Here are ten ways you can partner with us.

Make a pledge over three to five years

If you’d like to make a pledge in support of the School, it’s possible to spread the payments over three, four or five years.

To know more about this option, contact the Foundation’s Executive Director.

Make a Direct Debit or donate through Workplace Giving

Perhaps the easiest way of supporting the School is to make a monthly Direct Debit from your bank account or credit card.

You can access this process directly here.

Another option is to use Workplace Giving as a tax effective way of making your donation. As an employee, you can contribute a portion of your pre-tax salary to the Shore Foundation which is a Registered Charity with DGR status. You’ll receive an immediate tax benefit.

Some employers are prepared to match donations made to eligible charities. It’s worth checking as this would double the impact of your generosity.

As with all such decisions, we advise you to seek Financial and Tax advice regarding your individual circumstances.

Make a donation from the USA

The Australian Independent Schools USA Foundation (AISUSA) was established in 2006 and encourages individuals and organisations to support education through tax deductable donations.
