Scholarship and Bursary Fund
Each year, Scotch College awards a number of Academic, Music, Boarding and Indigenous Scholarships and Bursaries. Like every Scotch College student, recipients are welcomed into our 'community for life' and receive the many benefits of the Scotch College culture, faith and education of which we are so proud.
Each donation from the Scotch community will help us to offer the gift of a Scotch College education to students to whom it may not otherwise be available.
If you have any questions regarding how you can donate, Please contact Manager of Philanthropy Mel Colling and Director of Admissions and Advancement David Kyle on +61 8 9383 6987 or philanthropy@scotch.wa.edu.au.

Make a capital investment
John Maxwell Ferguson Fund
This capital investment fund was named in honour of John Maxwell Ferguson, who financed the relocation of Scotch College from Beaufort Street, Perth to Collegians' House in Swanbourne in 1904.
His vision and generosity provided a wonderful foundation for the future.
The aim of the JM Ferguson Fund is to draw on the collective financial strength of the greater School community, with the goal of creating a substantial capital base. This capital base, in time, will generate growing returns to become one of the providers of capital funds for the next hundred years of the College's life.
In order to establish the Fund and enable its successful first stage of development, an effective structure was supported by a number of the College community who generously provided a loan of $50,000 over a five-year-period.
We are now inviting new participants to the Fund via a contribution of a minimum of $25,000 interest-free loan for a period of at least three years.
The Directors of the Fund are John Flecker, Tim Lyons, Paul Carter, Simon Jackson and Paul Davidson.
If you would like to discuss further any of the above, please contact Manager of Philanthropy Mel Colling and Director of Admissions and Advancement David Kyle on +61 8 9383 6987 or philanthropy@scotch.wa.edu.au.
Leave a bequest
Alexander Society
The Alexander Society recognises those who have made a provision for the future of Scotch College in their will.
The Society honours the role played by the Alexander family in establishing the school. William and Jane Alexander, concerned by the absence of a Presbyterian school for boys in Perth, made a gift of £500 to the Church in 1896 for the establishment of Scotch College.
This philanthropy began a tradition that has continued for more than 100 years and has allowed for the development of a range of resources for the School. W A Gardner made a bequest of $68,000 in 1968 to establish a fund that has grown to more than $1 million and assists the sons and grandsons of Old Scotch Collegians to attend the school.
A bequest is a tangible way to make a lasting gift that will contribute to the life of Scotch College.
Enquiries regarding making a bequest should be directed to Manager of Philanthropy Mel Colling and Director of Admissions and Advancement David Kyle on +61 8 9383 6987 or philanthropy@scotch.wa.edu.au.
All correspondence and information is treated in the strictest confidence.
