Move Mountains

Edge School's Annual Giving Day

The countdown is on! Edge School’s Move Mountains 2025 is Wednesday, March 19.

This annual fundraising event joins the entire Edge School community to benefit our student-athletes. This year, we are hosting Move Mountains in conjunction with our Edge Olympics.

We hope to raise $40,000 to purchase much needed equipment in the Duckett Performance Centre (DPC), as well as additional items needed at Edge School:

  • - Two new water filling stations
  • - A new Run Rocket for the DPC  
  • - New Keiser & Rogue Echo bikes for the DPC
  • - One new K Box Strength Unit for the DPC
  • - One new Mid-Thigh Pull Rack for the DPC
  • - Mountain Team signage in the cafeteria
  • - New Edge School sign above the main entrance 

 

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

How it works is that each member of each mountain team - student-athletes, parents, teachers, staff, and other donors - donate money to their mountain team, which earns points for every donation and total dollars raised per mountain team.

Ways to Donate
  • - Submit a donation through this link
  • - Stop by in person and bring your cash – coins and dollar bills – to fill up each Mountain Teams’ money bank, points are awarded every time their bank is filled 
  • - Help your child purchase a Ticket for a Toonie to throw a pie at an Edge School Staff member during Move Mountains
  • - Give your Mountain Team a head start by donating $2,500 and we’ll help challenge others to match it

EVERY DONATION COUNTS!

Help us achieve our fundraising goals and help each Mountain Team earn more points. Move Mountains may qualify for matching donations from your employer.

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 nearly $580,000 to Move Mountains. These funds have been invested in many different ways around the school:

-Updating the Learning Commons (2017)
