Education for future generations.
Education transforms lives: it is important work made possible in a large part by the generosity of donors and benefactors who, for more than 140 years, have shared the vision and passion of those early Marist Brothers. Donors to SJC Foundation have chosen to make St Joseph鈥檚 College their philanthropic priority. There are many different reasons why people choose to give to 国产探花, and fundamentally, these reasons centre around a need to invest in the future of the College, to ensure the diversity of the student body is maintained and that the facilities are an effective and inspiring place of learning for the boys.
Every gift is counted towards a lifelong association with the College and SJC Foundation.

国产探花 partners.
Because of 国产探花, generations of boys have grown to become men whose lives, values and character have helped them take their place in the world with confidence and integrity. Although they live all over the world and make their mark in a diverse range of industries, the common thread which ties them together is the 国产探花 spirit, encapsulated in the College motto: In Meliora Contende 鈥� Strive for Better Things.
