Academy Fundraising
VOLUNTARY FINANCIAL CONTRIBUTIONS TO GREAT ACADEMY ASHTON
Our School Fund Scheme for voluntary financial contribution has been an important source of funds for many years. I hope you will consider supporting your child’s school in this way. Please contact our Finance Team if you require further information about how your contribution can support us via the email address admin@gaa.org.uk
Your contribution does not necessarily have to be through direct funds, we would welcome support with physical resources such as new books for our library, office equipment, sponsorship of our sporting teams, donation of music equipment or lighting and stage equipment, or even the donation of team kits. If you have an idea that you would like to discuss please e-mail me directly on david.waugh@gaa.org.uk
I do hope you are able to give the school your financial support and enhance the service we provide to all our students. We are extremely grateful for any donations made and I promise you that the money will be put to good use.
Thank you in advance for your generous support.
