2022 Annual Review

Celebrating the spirit of giving

DEVELOPMENT AND ALUMNAE RELATIONS

We are grateful to the Girls Grammar community for their generous philanthropic support in 2022. The assistance our students and teachers receive from families, alumnae, and the wider community are essential to the School and vital to the continuation of a Girls Grammar education.

A highlight of 2022 was the School’s second annual Giving Day, which raised more than $753 000 in 12 hours. This outstanding achievement would not have been possible without the contribution of the P&F Association, the Old Girls’ Association, and the wonderful generosity of the wider Girls Grammar community. Funds raised from Giving Day will enable the establishment of the Parents & Friends Association Bursary, which will provide more opportunities for generations of young women to experience a Girls Grammar education. Bursaries have the power to be life-changing—they create access and opportunities, unlock potential, and open pathways by providing vital financial assistance to girls from a wide range of backgrounds. The expansion of the BGGS Bursary Program is made possible thanks to the generosity of our Girls Grammar community, and the School is deeply grateful to all those who have given their support. A philanthropic spirit at Girls Grammar permeated throughout 2022 as we all sought to try and return to a renewed sense of normality by coming together in person once again. Wonderfully, our Grammar Women were also able to return to the School to celebrate their milestone reunions.

Volunteering is at the heart of community spirit and we are fortunate to have so many parents, alumnae, and friends who give of their time and skills to help our students and staff. We are grateful to all those who took time out from their personal schedules to assist the School—whether this be through one of the parent support groups, mentoring current students through the Grammar Women Mentoring Program or volunteering as a graduating class reunion coordinator. Your generosity and friendship are essential elements of a strong and connected community, and your efforts and contributions are deeply appreciated. Thank you for supporting the education of our current and future students by giving to Brisbane Girls Grammar School. The Impact of Giving 2022 Report provides further details about the philanthropic highlights and activities of our generous Girls Grammar community.
