A St Vincent's education empowers young women to think critically, act with courage and contribute meaningfully to the world around them.

Every day, our students are encouraged to discover their strengths, pursue their aspirations and develop the confidence to lead lives of purpose. The opportunities they experience today are made possible through the commitment of our community and the enduring belief in the transformative power of girls' education.

Today, we have the privilege of continuing that tradition. Through philanthropy, we can continue to create opportunities for current and future generations of Vinnies girls to learn, belong and thrive.

A TRADITION OF GENEROSITY

Generosity has always been part of the St Vincent's story.

For generations, families, ex-students, staff and friends of the College have invested in young women through acts of giving both large and small. Their support has helped open doors for students, strengthen our community and create opportunities that extend far beyond the classroom.

Today, that tradition continues through the St Vincent's College Foundation.

Every gift helps ensure that future generations of young women can benefit from the same spirit of opportunity, care and belonging that has long defined a St Vincent's education.

STEWARDING GENEROSITY

Established in 1991, the St Vincent’s College Foundation exists to encourage, manage and steward philanthropic support for the College.

Guided by the Advancement, Philanthropy and Stewardship Committee, and working alongside the College Board and Advancement Office, the Foundation plays an important role in strengthening a culture of generosity within the St Vincent’s community and ensuring philanthropy remains an enduring part of College life.

Every gift represents an investment in young women and an act of trust in the future of St Vincent’s College. Through careful stewardship, the Foundation ensures donations are managed responsibly, directed towards their intended purpose and used to create meaningful impact for current and future students.

Whether supporting scholarships and bursaries, assisting families experiencing hardship or helping create spaces where young women can learn, gather and belong, philanthropy helps strengthen opportunity, connection and community across the College.

The Foundation is governed by the College Board Directors and is committed to transparency, accountability and thoughtful donor stewardship.

St Vincent’s College Foundation Limited is registered as a charity with the Australian Charities and Not-for-profits Commission (ACNC) and is endorsed by the Australian Taxation Office as a Deductible Gift Recipient.
