Every donor has the choice to direct their gift to any area of the school including Academics, Arts, Athletics or Campus Life. Ridley is only as strong as those who support us, so every dollar counts. We thank you for taking the time to consider a donation.

The Grants Program is the legacy of the Foundation. Each year over $30,000 is given to teachers to run projects not supported by the operational funds of schools. We also have many programs designed to ensure all students can maximize their learning and their success rate. We provide for hungry kids, we purchase snowsuits and boots for those in need and help with annual Christmas baskets.

Gender equality is not only a basic human right, but its achievement has enormous socio-economic ramifications. Empowering women fuels thriving economies, spurring productivity and growth. Yet gender inequalities remain deeply entrenched in every society. Women lack access to decent work and face occupational segregation and gender wage gaps. They are too often denied access to basic education and health care. Women in all parts of the world suffer violence and discrimination. They are under-represented in political and economic decision-making processes. UN Women was created to address such challenges. It is a dynamic and strong champion for women and girls, providing them with a powerful voice at the global, regional and local levels.. We work to improve the lives of women in Canada and around the world. Your generosity today will provide a better tomorrow for girls and women worldwide.
