Giving

The KGMS community today benefits from the vision, courage, dedications, and commitment of our supporters. Tuition and government grants fund our day-to-day operations but, as an Independent School and a not-for-profit organization (with charity status), we count on the continued generosity of our families and friends to pursue our mission and change lives. 

Inspiring Futures Fund

Your investment in the KGMS Inspiring Futures Fund will open doors of opportunity, foster creativity, and ensure that all students at Kenneth Gordon Maplewood School can reach their full potential, regardless of their challenges. Your donation will support:

  • Support for Junior School’s Adaptive Technology: Your generous contribution will provide cutting-edge adaptive technology tools, such as tablets, to ensure every student can engage in learning, regardless of their individual needs.
  • Middle School Classroom Technology Upgrades: Donations will help enhance the learning experience for middle school students by upgrading classroom technology, ensuring that teachers and students have access to the latest tools that support interactive and dynamic learning.
  • Senior School STEM Lab Refurbishment: Help us inspire the next generation of innovators by contributing to the transformation of our STEM lab.
  • Adaptive Music and Digital Arts Technology: Your support will provide students with access to innovative adaptive music technology, ensuring every child, regardless of ability, can experience the joy of music and self-expression. Additionally, funding will enable the upgrade of digital arts technology, giving students the tools to explore new creative horizons, push artistic boundaries, and thrive in an increasingly digital world.
  • Other important priorities.

Together, we can build a brighter, more inclusive future for every learner.

Annual Giving

By supporting Kenneth Gordon Maplewood School, your generosity is making a lasting impact and helping every one of our students thrive.

Because of your support, we’ve been able to upgrade classrooms, enhance technology, rebuild our outdoor learning space, purchase new sensory equipment, and provide bursaries.

Next week, we will be launching our Inspiring Futures Fund, where you can choose to support us in delivering an exceptional education for children with ADHD, autism, dyslexia, anxiety, and other learning differences.

Thank you for being part of our community!
