Family Handbook 2018-19

Guidelines: 

1. Students may fundraise at Havergal College primarily in support of Havergal’s community  partnerships, except:  a. in cases of disaster relief; or  b. if a proposal is approved in accordance with the criteria in point 3 (below).  2. Proposals for fundraising in support of community partners must be brought to the  Director, Forum for Change, who will then bring it to the Student Initiative Team (see  above);  3. If students (Prefects, councils, clubs, Houses, Forms, groups, etc.) or faculty/staff want to  fundraise for a cause or organization that is not a community partner, a proposal must be  brought to the Director, Forum for Change for referral to the Student Initiative Team.
