How to Donate

The GCVI Alumni Fund was set up with the Wellington Learning Foundation in 1998 to allow Alumni to make financial contributions to the Alumni Association and receive a tax receipt.  The name of the Foundation has changed to Upper Grand Learning Foundation. You can open and print this: Contribution Form  Complete the form and send it in with your donation.

These are the ongoing projects that we continue to support:

1. Reconstruction Of The Old School Bell 

This bell needs to be incorporated into the existing GCVI auditorium to be functional for very special occasions. The bell is the last remaining symbol of the 1879 school building.

2. Preservation And Upkeep Of The GCVI School Archives 

The GCVI school  Archives have been established at the school.  The Archives is in the P.G. Reid Library Learning Commons. We are in need of funds for the preservation and upkeep for the cataloguing and maintenance of the growing collection.

3. Scholarships/Awards 

The Alumni would like to provide scholarships for GCVI that would be presented at the annual Commencement ceremonies. Please specify which scholarship or award you are sponsoring.


The Upper Grand Learning Foundation is a non-profit charitable organization. It is an independent entity managed by a Board of Directors consisting of representatives from the Community, the Public and Separate School Boards. As a registered Charity, the Foundation is able to issue official tax receipts for the donations it receives. The Upper Grand Learning Foundation can issue tax receipts but the GCVI Alumni Association cannot. The Guelph CVI Alumni Association has become a member of the Upper Grand Learning Foundation and contributions to the Alumni Association will be credited to the GCVI Alumni Fund and a tax receipt will be issued for donations of $20 or more.
