ANNUAL GIVING

Harrison and Terry

Annual Giving Fund

The Newington Annual Fund appeals to Old Boys, current and past parents and friends of the College for support that makes a difference in the lives of current students. 

Unlike endowed funds, which are invested and generate support for specific purposes in perpetuity, the Annual Fund plays a vital part in the thriving day-to-day operation of the College.  Gifts to the Annual Fund realise a wide variety of programs including building and grounds refurbishment, student scholarships and library and computer resources.

All Annual Fund gifts go directly into the operating budget to immediately fund those areas which may otherwise be delayed due to other financial pressures and obligations.

The generosity of the Newington Community to the 2006 Annual Fund Donors enabled work to begin on the extension of the Old Boys Oval together with the restoration of Founders Building stonework.  Both these projects were completed because of the generosity of the Newington Community.  Donors also generously contributed to the Scholarship Fund in 2006.

It is hoped that ultimately the Annual Fund will raise 10% of the College’s operating budget.  100% of Annual Fund gifts are spent either in the year they were donated or the following year.
