There are two avenues through which your generosity can bolster our efforts to maintain and improve upon the excellence that our school offers. A gift to the “Ridley College Foundation” bolsters our extensive Scholarship & Bursary program, which provides vital financial aid to deserving students. The Foundation also supports Teaching Professional Development, Facility Maintenance and Prizes and Awards. A donation to "Ridley College" makes available financial support for key programs that we are proud to offer and grants the school the flexibility required to address our most pressing budgetary needs. 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.

The National Farmers Foundation has a board of directors made up of five persons known for their commitment to education and research for the benefit of the family farm in Canada. The directors are in sympathy with the goals, objectives, and policy of the National Farmers Union. Representatives of various sectors in the country, such as family farmers, organic product marketers, new rural development groups, churches, rural youth and women, and urban consumers supported the establishment of the organization. Many of these have identified a vacuum with respect to accessible education and plain language research to help direct the crucial ventures in rural development which will mean not only survival, but the thriving of rural communities into the twenty - first century. A new awareness of the interdependence of rural and urban communities creates a challenge to promote action-oriented education and research which will create and enhance positive rural/urban cooperation.

Inner Winnipeg faces a number of challenges. Not every family or community has access to the same economic opportunities and social supports, or even to the basics that children need to succeed. Impoverished living conditions can result in a number of other challenges like neighbourhood violence, emotional trauma, homelessness, and hunger. Children living in these environments are coping with high stress levels that can impact learning and affect how well they perform in school. Access to education is a serious issue because it affects the quality of life and prospects of children, families, and neighbourhoods. It is a root cause of many other issues including joblessness, crime and violence, poor physical and mental health, and neighbourhood decline. The Westland Foundation believes that post secondary education is critical to the future of the students we support and to the betterment of our society.
