Move Mountains

Edge School's Annual Giving Day

Thank you to everyone who supported this year’s Move Mountains! We raised just over $24,000 of our $40,000 goal. Congratulations to Makalu for raising the most money.

This annual giving day engages the entire Edge School community to raise funds for items relating to our facilities, equipment, classroom technology and our financial aid program. 

Like most independent schools, we receive only partial government funding to support school programming and we receive no government funding for any capital needs. 

Proceeds from this years’ event will help us purchase: 

  • -Two new water filling stations 
  • -Multiple exercise, training and strengthening equipment in the DPC   
  • -Mountain Team signage in the cafeteria
  • -New Edge School sign above the main entrance 

Ongoing contributions to our Financial Aid Program are always accepted. These funds help student-athletes attend Edge School who otherwise would not have an opportunity to do so.

Contact Cindy Miller for more information.

We thank you for your generous support!

What is Move Mountains?

Each year, the Edge School community comes together to take part in Move Mountains, our largest annual fundraiser! Edge Mountain Teams – Everest, Kilimanjaro, Logan, and Makalu – will compete for the largest number of donations, earning a point for every donation made and the total dollars raised.

Move Mountains is a day that celebrates the Edge Mountaineer culture of community and care for others. Donations are credited to each Mountain Team and directed to the Equipment & Facilities Funds and Edge School Foundation Financial Aid.

Since 2017, the Edge community has generously donated over $604,000 to Move Mountains. These funds have been invested in many different ways around the school:

-Updating the Learning Commons (2017)

-Purchasing new equipment, and athlete assessment and movement velocity devices to advance training in the Duckett Performance Centre (2018)

-Purchasing new water bottle filling stations (2019)

-Updating classroom technology (2019)

-Supporting financial assistance (2017-2024)
