Inspiring Excellence in 2024

"As a parent, I will forever be grateful to Xavier for the solid foundation the College has provided for my son academically, encouraging him to develop and embrace a love for life-long learning. The opportunities for further self-development at the College are outstanding - the music program, the range of sporting activities, the chance to show leadership and generosity, and most importantly, becoming a ‘Man for Others’ through service whilst at school and beyond."

Each year, Xavier College reaches out to our community of Old Xaverians, current and past parents and staff to invite them to make a tax-deductible gift to the Xavier College Foundation.

The annual appeal provides financial support for a number of different projects each year, including Scholarships and Bursaries, Heritage Buildings and the Benevolent Fund. 

Scholarships and Bursaries

  • Inspiring Excellence Bursary - assists with both tuition and boarding costs
  • Indigenous Bursary - assisting remote and local Indigenous students
  • Class of 2016 - the Class of 2016 cohort legacy to provide a full VCE bursary
  • Leavers Bursary - bursary provided by Old Xaverians from other years

Heritage Buildings 

  • Supporting the upkeep of the various Heritage listed building to ensure that they are maintained and conserved for generations to come

Libraries 

  • Providing funding for additional resources in the libraries that will allow the College to stay up to date with ne and exciting developments in learning resources and technology

Benevolent Fund

  • This fund exists to provide financial support and personal assistance for those within the Xavier Community who are experiencing great hardship. Please contact the Foundation if you or someone you know is experiencing difficulties and would like to know how the Foundation can assist confidentially

In 2024, we received $193,000 from 209 gifts and in 2024, we aim to inspire not only current donors but those who may have never given before to consider supporting our Inspiring Excellence appeal. 

Every gift, no matter how small or large, makes a difference to the lives of students of Xavier. It is the collective power of gifts from our community that makes the biggest difference of all.
