Ways to Give

The annual Communitas Appeal raises funds to support the St Hilda's Scholarships and Financial Assistance program. Over 80 scholarships are awarded each year, valued in excess of $500,000. All donations over $2 are tax deductible for Australian residents. 

I would note be able to study Science, live at the college and pursue my dream to be a Paediatric specialist, without the scholarship provided by St Hilda's alumni.

Giving while living is a powerful legacy. 

Since our early days, donors have followed in Lady Paton's footsteps and supported the College with a bequest. This generosity enables students to fulfil their academic goals in our supportive and welcoming community.

A bequest is a gift left to a beneficiary in an individual’s will. As such it’s an enduring contribution that can honour you, your family, or someone close to you, well into the future.

Bequest types can include:

• Residuary (remainder of the estate once legacies and costs have been paid)
• A percentage of an estate
• Pecuniary (a specific sum)
• Assets such as real estate, shares and/or culturally significant works of art.
