Why Give?
Your gift to the School is a powerful and immediate way to affirm your confidence in our vision. It ensures that the Brentwood experience remains exceptional and accessible for all of our students—today, and for generations to come.
The 2027 Grad Class Bursary Fund
Since 2015, every graduating class has shared a common goal: leaving the door open for those following in their footsteps. This year, the Class of 2027 is stepping up to continue this powerful tradition of “paying it forward.”
The 2027 Grad Class Bursary Fund is more than just a donation—it’s a collective investment in the future. By contributing, our graduates and their families are helping to ensure that financial barriers don’t stand in the way of talented incoming students joining our community.
Why Give to the 2027 Fund?
- Create Immediate Impact: Your gift goes directly toward a bursary that supports a student entering their first year this fall.
- Join a Decade of Tradition: We are proud to mark over ten years of student-led philanthropy. Every dollar contributed adds to a legacy that began in 2015.
How Your Support Makes a Difference
“The support I received from a previous grad class bursary changed my entire trajectory. Now, as I prepare to graduate with the Class of 2026, I’m honoured to help do the same for someone else.” — Bursary Recipient Class of ’26
Ready to leave your mark?
The journey for the Class of 2027 might be coming to a close, but your influence is just beginning. Help us reach our 100% participation goal and $150,000 to endow the fund!

Empower a Future with Meaning
Welcome to Brentwood College School’s Giving Page!
At Brentwood, we believe in nurturing the potential within each student, providing them with an exceptional education, and empowering them to make a positive impact in the world. Our commitment to excellence in academics, athletics, arts, and leadership is unwavering, and we rely on the generous support of our community to continue delivering on this promise.
Your contribution to Brentwood College School directly supports our students’ growth and success. Whether it’s funding financial aid, enhancing campus facilities, or supporting innovative programs, your gift makes a tangible difference in the lives of our students.
The Power of Your Gift
Brentwood is more than a school; it’s a community built on a foundation of trust, courage, and compassion. But it’s the generosity of our alumni, parents, and friends that truly elevates this experience, bridging the gap between tuition revenue and our vision for an unparalleled education. Your gift empowers us to innovate, dream bigger, and continue fostering the leaders of tomorrow.
Your support makes a meaningful difference, and we’re deeply grateful for your partnership in our mission. Thank you for choosing to invest in Brentwood College School and the bright futures of our students.

Annual Fund 2026/27
Their Story is Just Beginning. The Next Chapter Starts With You. As our students turn the page on a new school year, each day opens up with new opportunities for growth and exploration. But these transformational experiences don’t happen by chance. They are built on the generosity of our extraordinary School community.
Annual giving provides flexible funding for priorities that directly support our students and faculty, including financial aid, classroom technology, arts and athletics, and faculty development. It is a key part of our annual fundraising efforts. When you contribute to the Brentwood Annual Fund, you directly shape the day-to-day lives of our students.
No matter the size, every gift makes a powerful difference in the lives of our students.
“As a 2019 graduate, Kirtis grew in every way at Brentwood, academically, personally, and socially. We’re grateful for the lasting impact and proud to give back to this incredible community”
