THANK YOU

Thank you to our parents, alumni, faculty, staff and friends of LCC for supporting our Annual Giving Program, and the Rock YOUR House Giving Challenge.

You set a new record of $835K

Here’s what we funded:

Over $200K will serve to enhance the academic and co-curricular programs and provide immediate bursaries to students.

ENHANCED ACADEMICS
  • Additional professional development for faculty to better support the emotional and social development
    of our students

  • Workshop for parents on self-regulation strategies for children using the Shanker Self-Reg method

  • Presentation to Junior School by an aerospace educator

  • Active learning furniture and Flexispot bicycle work stations

  • Furniture, books and materials for the libraries 

  • Pre-U grow boxes 

  • Virtual reality goggles with accompanying curriculum 

  • Parent session on the 18 Umbrella Skills: what they can do to help support their children’s well-being without compromising their own

STRENGTHENED BURSARY PROGRAM

OVER $55K FOR IMMEDIATE BURSARIES

ENHANCED CO-CURRICULARS
  • Five 3D printers

  • Robotic arm system

  • Embroidery machine

  • Athletic mats for the
    wrestling program

  • Junior School recess equipment

Over $400K was named and directed to the LCC Foundation to boost the school's bursary program.

GENERAL BURSARY FUND: $125K
NAMED CLASS BURSARIES: $275K

Every year the LCC Foundation disburses 5% of the total market portfolio to LCC to support bursaries. Today, one in five students — from grades 7 to Pre-U — receives a bursary, making LCC more accessible to students from diverse socioeconomic backgrounds.

CLASS GIFT: A LIFE-CHANGING LEGACY

Parents and guardians with a child in grades 6, 11 and Pre-U are invited to participate in the Annual Giving Program by contributing to their respective named class bursaries. These named funds provide direct financial assistance to a student in perpetuity. Together, they celebrate their children’s achievements and ensure that their class remains united in a legacy of Non Nobis Solum, helping others receive the wonderful LCC experience they were so fortunate to enjoy. Alumni started this tradition many years ago when celebrating their milestone reunions.

ROCK YOUR HOUSE GIVING CHALLENGE

Complementing the Annual Giving Program, LCC held its second, 36-hour communitybuilding and fundraising event. The Rock YOUR House Giving Challenge celebrates LCC pride and raises funds for a designated project. Our 2023 focus was the creation of the LCC Rooftop Urban Garden. With its innovative design and practices we aim to educate our students on sustainability, urban farming and cultivation. Throughout the event, donations poured in and we closed out with 940 gifts totalling over $235K. While the challenge was claimed by Woods House, we are all winners!
