King's Foundation
The King’s Christian Collegiate Foundation is guided by the sincere belief that every high school student has intrinsic untapped abilities to learn and that parents ought to have the opportunity to guide their children towards Christian thought and action. The Foundation was created to support the aims and objectives of King’s Christian Collegiate. Incorporated in 2009 as a wholly separate entity, the Foundation gathers funds to provide bursary support for qualified parents, to enhance the program of study, to fund major capital projects, and to fund specific needs that are identified from time to time.
The goals of the Foundation are achieved by the enthusiastic support of present parents, alumni, past King’s parents and many lifelong friends of the school. Your generosity in support of the annual Fall Gala, the early summer Alumni Golf Tournament, individual donations, corporate donations, and inclusion in your Last Will and Testament are valued and appreciated.
