Giving FAQ

The Southpointe Enrichment Fund is a direct appeal to parents, family members, faculty, staff, Board of Governors, alumni, and friends of Southpointe Academy for financial contributions to provide equipment and programs not funded through the annual operating budget.

As an independent school and registered charity, Southpointe relies on philanthropic donations as an important source of financial support to offset operational expenses. Priority areas are identified each year, and donors may designate which areas they would like to support through our annual appeals.

Through updates in our Midpointe newsletters, social media, and Impact & Annual Reports, you will see the difference your donation is having on our students. Please know that we are available at any time should you wish to discuss your gift or learn more about Southpointe Philanthropy.

Yes, donors can choose to make a one-time gift or pledge a donation over the school year. Donations can be made online, by credit card, cheque, or transfer of securities.

Many donors find it convenient to donate monthly, with automatically withdrawn payments. To choose this option, simply select “monthly donation” when you donate online or on your reply form.
 

Major gifts can be made in support of a school program or specific campaign and can be transformational for our school by both enhancing and sustaining our ability to deliver on our mission. These gifts can be made as multi-year commitments (pledges) and provide a sustainable funding source for your area of interest.

Here at Southpointe, our main priority is to strengthen the philanthropic culture within our community. We welcome and appreciate donations of all sizes at a level that is both meaningful and within your means.

We ask that you consider a gift that is right for you and your family; your participation in our donor community is what matters most. Donations of any size, at the level that you are comfortable with, are truly valued and deeply appreciated.
