As the Foundation is now well and truly established and our initial set-up grant is now spent, the Foundation’s Trust board has resolved to ask Past Pupils to consider making a voluntary contribution to the Foundation’s ongoing administration costs. An amount of $5 per annum per past pupil would be sufficient to cover running costs and enable us to deliver, for example, more events and communications for Past Pupils.
If you would like to contribute to your Foundation’s running costs, please deposit $5 to the Linwood Te Aratai Foundation Charitable Trust bank account Kiwibank 38-9026-0266035-00. Due to the amount asked we do not intend to provide donation receipts as this would be very time-consuming for our volunteers but we will account for your payment and report the collective sum annually in our accounts and in this newsletter.
To date we have received $140 in such donations. A huge thanks to all who have donated thus far:
Rachel Aitken, Sonya Hodder née Percy, Wayne Henderson, A Lyth, Neilsen & Kea, Barbara Taylor, Dawn Hames, Tedesco family.
Also very gratefully received each year is a donation from R & C Butler.
