In line with our Value of Generous Spirit, Woodcroft College selects a group of charities for an ongoing commitment across whole school fundraising. This group of charities is endorsed by the College and promoted by the Social Justice Ambassadors.
Whole School
In 2024, as a whole school, Woodcroft College is partnering with the following organisations.
Collective of St Mary Magdalene – Mary Mags Dinner
Woodcroft College staff and student volunteers will provide meals and kitchen staff for one or two Saturdays per year, helping the mission to provide an ‘Environment of Community and Acceptance’ for Adelaide’s homeless and disadvantaged. Click here to learn more about Mary Mags Dinners.
Compassion Australia
The College is sponsoring a child through Compassion. As a loving caring global focus community who have our “arrows facing out”, we wish to live to give and fill a need in someone else’s life. Click here learn more about Compassion Australia.
Tjindu Foundation
The College is supporting Tjindu Foundation which aims to create positive, long-term change for Aboriginal children in communities across Australia through cultural education and success in schooling. Click here to learn more about Tjindu Foundation.
The Smith Family Literacy Program
The College is supporting The Smith Family Literacy Program to help address the reading gap between disadvantaged children and their more advantaged peers. Each year our students also take part in The Smith Family Reading Program which pairs a child in need with an experienced and skilled ‘reading buddy’ who can support their literacy development.
