Shaw Birdies for Kids 2023

We are excited to announce that Rundle has been invited to participate, for a third year in a row, in the Shaw Birdies for Kids (BFK) program, presented by AltaLink. All donations made to Rundle through the Shaw Donation Portal will be matched up to 50%, now through to the end of August 2023. This year, funds raised with BFK will be directed towards our annual Vision & Values Campaign – Academy and College Campus Funds, which will support the purchase of Viewboard technology for our Academy classrooms and the redesign of our College Jr. High Science Lab.

Shaw Birdies for Kids (BFK) presented by AltaLink is a non-profit program under the Calgary Shaw Charity Classic Foundation. This program is designed to help raise new funds for local charities, engage the community in the Shaw Charity Classic tournament, and provide matching funds for each charity involved. Program benefits include:

  • Donations directed to a participating charity are matched up to 50% using the Shaw Foundation matching pool.
  • All administrative costs are covered by the tournament, meaning 100% of all donations will go directly to the charity selected.

 

Make Your Gift Go Even Further With Shaw BFK!

We are inviting our Rundle community to take advantage of this incredible opportunity to increase the impact of your charitable donations with the Shaw BFK matching program. Last year through BFK, our community raised an inspiring $35,000 for our Rundle schools and programs. This year, our goal is to raise $100,000 to support advancements in technology, innovation and wellness throughout our schools.

Rundle’s Birdies for Kids Campaign is a great way to increase the impact of your generosity!

Make your gift today, through to August 31, 2023 with the Shaw Birdies for Kids program and make your gift go even further.

Every donation is impactful and appreciated. Thank you for your continued support and generosity.
