How much can I give?

How will my gift be spent?
Your gift will be spent on the area that you choose. The Loreto College tax-deductible funds are:
Building Fund – renovation of the Cottars Green Oval – Tax deductible
The complete renovation of the Cottars Green Oval is a significant undertaking aimed at enhancing the quality of our girls’ co-curricular sports activities. By improving the turf, we will provide our students with a premium host venue to hone their skills and pursue their passions in sports. We know how scarce playing fields are for girls, therefore this renovation will provide a myriad opportunities to expand our girls’ experiences and to host other schools and sporting competitions.
Scholarship Fund – Gonzaga Barry Bursaries – Tax deductible
Mother Gonzaga Barry ibvm was the foundress of Loreto Education in Australia. Her passion for girls’ education had a significant influence on the development of education across Australia. The Gonzaga Barry academic bursaries offer a place for girls whose families otherwise could not afford a Loreto education. Our aim over the coming years is to build giving circles through regular tax-deductible donations from our Loreto community, whether annual, monthly or weekly commitments.
Gonzaga Barry Bursary Scholarship Fund – Tax deductible
