Goals of the Foundation Regarding Donations
Support the Centennial Foundation to ensure the long-term sustainability of Centennial Academy and enable it to continue providing an inclusive and innovative educational environment for students with learning difficulties in Quebec.
Ways to Contribute:
Every donation, large or small, is important to the Foundation. Thank you for supporting our mission to provide exceptional education to students with learning challenges. Tax receipts will be issued for donations of $25 and above.
By choosing a monthly donation, you help the Foundation plan and allocate your contributions throughout the year. This allows you to spread your support over the year and adjust or cancel your donation at any time according to your budget.
Partner with the Centennial Foundation to demonstrate your company’s commitment to the community. Engage your employees through a payroll deduction program or a matching gift initiative, fostering a motivating sense of belonging within your team.
If our cause resonates with you, consider making a financial contribution in memory of a loved one. It’s a meaningful way to share your values and support our mission while honouring the memory of someone special.
You also have the option to make a donation of flow-through shares via PearTree, which allows you to reduce your after-tax donation cost to less than 2%. Exceptionally, PearTree is accepting minimum donations of $25,000 instead of $35,000 for Centennial Academy this year.

Donating stocks is an alternative to cash donations. If the stocks are listed on a designated stock exchange, the Foundation will issue an official receipt based on their fair market value at the time of the donation. For stocks not listed on a designated exchange, the fair market value rules may apply.
Join us in supporting the Centennial Hope Scholarship, a fund established in 2024 to assist families lacking the financial resources to provide their children with the exceptional education offered at Centennial Academy. This year, the Centennial Foundation aims to raise funds to award 100 Centennial Hope Scholarship. Your support can change the life of a student and their family by giving them the unique opportunity to join our prestigious Academy. Together, let’s empower these young people to earn their diplomas and believe in a promising future. Your contribution is essential!
