Aquinas College Foundation

Since its days on the Terrace, philanthropy has played an important role in the history and culture of Aquinas College.

In 1997, the Foundation was established to continue this generous tradition of giving for the benefit of boys today and into the future. The Foundation supports the College in its mission to provide a holistic Catholic education for boys - in the tradition of Edmund Rice - through the provision of bursary opportunities and the funding of capital works projects that have enriched the educational experience at Aquinas.

With a focus on fundraising and fund management, the Foundation aims to:

  • Raise funds to preserve, improve and develop the holistic educational opportunities and facilities at the College.
  • Raise funds to ensure the ongoing success of appropriate student programs at the College, including bursaries and allowances.
  • Encourage and foster the interest and financial support of past students, parents of students and friends of the College.
  • Manage the funds of the Foundation in a prudent manner.
