CFIS ANNUAL FUND

Each year, the CFIS Annual Fund raises funds that are invested in advancing our school’s top priorities, creating an immediate and visible impact throughout the community.

This year, our Annual Fund theme is Every Classroom Counts. Our goal is to raise $350,000 to upgrade our current classrooms and construct eight new classrooms, set to open in 2027. These new learning spaces will accommodate our growing student body, enrich daily learning experiences, and help ensure that CFIS continues to thrive for generations to come.

When every classroom counts, every gift counts. Grow with us.

The CFIS Bridging Bursary is partially funded through the generosity of our community and provides support to current students experiencing temporary financial hardship. Families may choose to direct their charitable gifts toward this fund, helping ensure that all students can continue to thrive at CFIS. As we often say, it takes a village, and the Bridging Bursary is a meaningful example of our community coming together to care for one another.

Student travel and experiential learning at CFIS go far beyond traditional sightseeing. Our focus on educational exploration and cross-cultural connection deepens students’ understanding of the world and their place within it. Through these experiences, students build resilience, adaptability, empathy, and independence. With thoughtful preparation and meaningful reflection, travel becomes a catalyst for lasting personal and intellectual growth. Through the Round Square Travel Bursary, more students each year have the opportunity to take part in these life-changing experiences.

“My first Round Square conference and travel experience truly deepened my understanding of diversity through my passion for public speaking. In just a week I was able to refine communication and collaboration skills! I returned to CFIS with new ideas and a new sense of purpose, and I understand that my voice truly makes a difference in society.”  - Round Square Travel Bursary Recipient, Class of 2026.
