The Sacred Heart School of Montreal One of Canada's oldest independent Catholic schools for girls

The Annual Giving Fund provides equipment and teaching resources for faculty and special funding for students attending conferences and competitions. Unless otherwise specified, Matching Gifts and Donations in Memory or Recognition of an alumna, parent, teacher or friend of the school are also directed to this fund.

The Fund is the school's primary source of funding for bursaries vital to Sacred Heart students whose families require financial assistance. This year, 52 students will be able to attend the school thanks to your generosity.

The Sacred Heart Open Golf Tournament generates funds for the historic restoration of the City House and property. Ticket sales, sponsorships and gifts-in-kind all contribute to this cause.

Since its inception in 2001, we have painted and repaired the chapel roof, upgraded the front entrance and main doors, sandblasted, re-pointed and repaired stonework on the building exterior, installed outdoor ground lighting highlighting the building, renovated the study hall, and restored the stone fence along Dr. Penfield.

The Spring Gala has raised money for specific learning facilities improvements for your daughters. Guest attendance as well as direct financial and gift donations all add to this event's success.

Over the years, your generosity has assisted with automating the library system, the expansion and refurbishment of the library and resource centre, installation of retractable basketball nets in the gym, complete renovation of the Science Lab in Room 101, upgrading the "Orbis" with new lighting, whiteboards and furnishings, fresh paint and refinished floors, and technology improvements (smartboards, projectors and internet access) in classrooms.

The Chapel Fund contributions are earmarked for the replacement of the ten stained glass chapel windows (Let in the Light Programme) and resources for the chapel's maintenance, repair and refurbishment (Preserve a Pew Programme).

Special Funds are designated from time to time for specific purposes, usually at the donor's request.
