Annual Fund supports
academics and facilities
by Graham collis ('77)
Chairman of the Saltus Annual Fund,
Trustee and Alumnus
Thanks to our alumni, parents, and
friends, $501,868 was raised through
the Saltus Annual Fund from July 1,
2011 to June 30, 2012. In addition,
donations totalling $165,009 were
received for scholarships and bursaries,
of which $49,329 was realised after
expenses from the 17th Annual
Francis L. Stephenson Memorial
Golf Tournament. The event's net
income represents a 19-percent
increase over last year's figures and
a 66-percent jump over 2010. The
William (Bill) Duncan Memorial
Fund has also increased by $21,850 in
additional donations, bringing funds
raised to date to $136,685. Total cash
donations by parents, alumni and
friends of Saltus--helping to support
the entire operations of the School--
was $1,344,237.
We received gifts from 236 donors
who collectively made a significant
contribution to the success and future
of our School. We are sincerely
grateful for the loyalty, generosity
and commitment to Saltus of all its
supporters.
Contributions to the Annual Fund
provide immediate critical funding for
the academic programmes, facilities
and financial aid that make Saltus the
premier school in Bermuda. Each
year, improvements can be seen at the
School which result directly from the
financial support of our donors. As
in previous years, funding was also
provided for student bursaries and
teacher development. The projects
financed last year by the Annual
Fund are set out in the Director of
Finance's report. For the upcoming
year, we will focus on upgrading our
technology infrastructure.
We hope that all our alumni,
parents and friends will consider
giving to Saltus. During these difficult
economic times, the School's need
for funding, beyond the fees it
charges, is greater than ever. Saltus
makes an enormous contribution to
the lives of our students and your
support, at whatever level, will help
the School achieve its mission of
offering them the best educational
experience possible.
If you would like information
about how you can make a difference
