Tax-deductible donation
The School has a rowing equipment project registered with the Australian Sports Foundation, which enables donations to be tax deductible. Funds raised in this manner will be used to purchase new capital equipment for the rowing squad. It's a great way to support the girl's rowing program in a tax effective way. To make a donation, please download and complete the ASF Donation form here and return the form with your payment to the School. The Rowing Supporters Group warmly welcomes any donations that help to improve the presence of rowing in the School.
