The College relies on philanthropic support to enhance student experience and support families in need.

The College administers three Deductible Gift Recipient (DGR) funds approved by the Australian Taxation Office. Donations of $2 or more to these funds are tax deductible.

• The Chevalier College Building Fund
• The Chevalier College Scholarship Fund
• The Chevalier College Charitable Support Fund

The Development Office works to harness external support from College stakeholders, the wider community and government to support the ongoing growth and development of Chevalier College.

Working closely with the College Board and Chevalier Past Students, the Development Office is the College’s primary contact point for developing partnerships with business, industry and government, managing fundraising activities, receiving donations, and communicating with past students and community supporters.

Connection with Parents

The College provides many opportunities for our parents and caregivers to become involved in College life.  Opportunities to socialise, to be a spectator, to assist coaching and management of sport teams, to help out with performing arts events, to support fundraising events and donate to appeals – just to mention a few areas.

In years past, Chevalier College was fortunate to have a very strong Parents & Friends Association, which undertook successful commitment to organising special fundraising events.  Being part of this association meant being committed to attending numerous meetings and holding positions of office.  While in the past this format worked very well, in more recent years, this became more and more of a burden and difficult to maintain until, in 2013, the formal P&F ceased.

Our current approach is to encourage our families to become involved in individual projects – giving of their time and expertise.  We hope you will find a project you can contribute to and enjoy!
