Move Mountains

Edge School's Annual Giving Day

Thank you everyone for helping us Move Mountains! We are tremendously grateful for your donations and participation in our annual giving day. This year’s fundraising event on November 29, 2022 raised nearly $30,000. Proceeds will purchase a new projector and sound system in our Learning Commons, as well as support our purchase of a 10 + Passenger Van and help build our Financial Aid Fund.

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 Edge School Foundation Financial Aid and Equipment & Facilities Funds.

Since 2017, the Edge community has generously donated nearly $460,000 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 (2017-2021)

-Change room upgrades (2021)

-Sound system improvements in the main office, gym, and DPC (2021)

-Purchase of one, 10+ passenger van
