The Stavely Education Foundation was formed in 1996. It is a regulated federally-approved charitable trust and is able to issue tax receipts for donated funds and bequests. No money donated will be used for administration, salaries, or rental. The volunteer board is made up of fiscally-responsible members of the community.
The goals of the education trust are two-fold:
· To manage donations and bequests to develop a legacy directed to educational projects and scholarships.
· To assist in the delivery of quality, accessible public education in Stavely Schools.
Three endowment funds are currently in place. If you wish to make a donation or enquire about establishing a new fund or endowment to commemorate a person, event or specific scholastic purpose, please send an email to s-stavely@lrsd.ab.ca or call 1-403-549-3953.
· The Guy Cochlan Endowment Fund
This fund was established in memory of a long-time school trustee and friend of the community. Guy’s interest in our school’s vocational and technological programs, along with the success of its students, will now be remembered by The Guy Cochlan Endowment Fund. Its purpose is to help fund technology and equipment at Stavely Elementary School.
· The Linda Marshall/Bishop Endowment Fund
This fund was established in memory of long-time school teacher and Stavely native-daughter, Linda Marshall Bishop. Linda’s unwavering love and enthusiasm for the Stavely Schools and its children will now be remembered with The Linda Marshall Bishop Endowment Fund. Its purpose is to help fund materials and equipment in the elementary school programs.
