Inspiring our community to financially support Yarra Foundation to assist the School in the provision of world best educational facilities. The Yarra Foundation actively fundraises to secure the School’s future and supports its building, scholarship and library programs.
The Yarra Foundation has been instrumental over the years in creating the inheritance we enjoy today by fundraising for such special projects as the Research Centre, the Science & Mathematics Building, the Performing Arts Centre and Foundation Hall, whilst still providing immediate benefits for our current students and their families.
The Yarra Foundation is managed by a volunteer team of parents, past parents and Yarra Old Grammarians (past students). Volunteers also help in three different areas: Awareness, Participation (Ask) and Belonging (Thank). Joining us to volunteer is an exciting opportunity to become part of the very substance and spirit of Yarra Valley Grammar.
The Yarra Foundation is a company limited by guarantee. It is governed by a volunteer Board of Directors who meet four times per year.
Our children today are reaping the benefits of the generosity and support of the School's founders and past parents.
It is now our turn to carry on this tradition of support and help make the School even better for today's and tomorrow's students.
We have come a long way since 1966 and the Yarra Foundation offers the best possible way to keep this momentum going and guarantee a great future for the School.
