Roslyn School Foundation / Fondation de l'école Roslyn seeks to support and enhance the educational experience offered at Roslyn School, by means of ongoing fundraising for the purpose of establishing an endowment under prudent financial management. Through endowed funding and donations, the Foundation strives to ensure that the needs of the school and students are met and where possible improve the quality of education and enrich the learning experience at Roslyn School. It is important to know the Foundation is a federally incorporated non-profit organization that is independent of Roslyn School and the English Montreal School Board.

Our strategy
The initial goal of the Foundation was to raise $100,000 by September 2008 (“100K for 100 years”) to mark the centennial of Roslyn’s founding in 1908. The long-term goal is to establish an endowment fund of $1 Million to ensure Roslyn School continues its tradition of providing the best possible programs and facilities to meet the needs of the students who study there. It can be done!
