'Starting Block' Swimming Appeal 2024
HELP US BUILD NEW STARTING BLOCKS FOR OUR SWIMMERS! We need your help to replace our eight worn-out starting blocks with state-of-the-art Omega starting blocks. Omega starting blocks are essential for providing our swimmers with the best possible start and to give them the competitive advantage they deserve. Our goal is to raise $44,000 to install eight new Omega starting blocks at the Eric Solling Pool on the Wolaroi School Campus. Every contribution, no matter the size, brings us closer to providing a world-class experience for our swimmers. Donating a whole starting block offers a unique opportunity to leave a lasting legacy in our school’s swimming history. Each starting block, valued at $5,500, comes with the option to add an engraved plaque. This can be a meaningful way to commemorate a special occasion, give a unique gift, or honor a loved one. All donations are fully tax-deductible.
National Refugee Week - The Cage
In support of National Refugee Week, Year 12 students from Saint Ignatius' College, Adelaide will have the opportunity to participate in an event called 'The Cage'. The Cage is an experience designed by students for students, as an act of solidarity in support of the work of JRS and other social justice organisations with refugees. It involves students being inside a ‘cage’ for 24 hours without access to some of what we normally take for granted (e.g food, technology, a bed). They will have the opportunity to hear from an old scholar, Besmellah Rezaee, who has a remarkable story of his personal experiences as a refugee, and currently works in Refugee and Migrant Law. All funds raised will be donated to Jesuit Refugee Service and the St Vincent De Paul Refugee and Migrant Centre.
The Beecroft Orchestra Gift Fund
One of the hardest things for young classical professional musicians to achieve is showcasing their work with full orchestras and increasing their media presence in order to build their careers. The Beecroft Orchestra has a Gift Fund specifically designed to be targeted to give young musicians these opportunities. Tax deductible donations are gratefully accepted and can be targeted for specific outcomes such as the premiere of a new piece or a performance opportunity for a young singer,player,composer or conductor. You may honor someone by arranging a specific favourite piece to be played by the orchestra. Contact beecroftorchestra@gmail.com for any further discussions or assistance. We use our donations to give young musicians the chance to showcase their talents and support them while they are building their careers. We also increase their public profile when they play with us by featuring them on our website and other associated media platforms connected with our orchestra.
The Steele Foundation
The Steele Foundation was established in memory of Brendan and Olivia Steele. Olivia was born with a rare liver disease and given little chance of surviving past her first birthday. However, she received a liver transplant on her first birthday, thanks to a generous donor. Before the transplant, Olivia was on 15 medications and hospitalised 23 times. She spent three months recovering in the hospital and lived a happy, healthy life for 19 years with only two medications. Tragically, just weeks before her 20th birthday, Olivia required a heart, lung, and second liver transplant. After receiving the heart and lung transplant, she passed away while awaiting the liver. Three months later, her father Brendan passed from a stroke and a broken heart. The Steele Foundation honours their memory by raising awareness for organ donation and supporting the Liver Transplant Unit at Westmead Children’s Hospital. We thank you for any donations. 🤍
