Support Fund
Helping our RVEHSA community
Introducing the “Support Fund”, an initiative by the Royal Vale Elementary Home & School Association (RVEHSA) to help elementary school families within our Royal Vale community.
Rooted in the belief of community support and inclusivity, this fund endeavors to assist families in need of ongoing or temporary assistance, by facilitating their access to our After School Programs and Enrichment Programs.
RVEHSA are committed to providing all the elementary students of RVS access to resources that will help them thrive academically, socially and emotionally.
We recognize the important role that the RVEHSA programs play in supporting working families, and also that education extends beyond the classroom walls. Every child deserves the opportunity to explore, learn and grow by having the chance to participate in RVEHSA’s various programs regardless of economic barriers. Under the umbrella of the “Support Fund”, families facing financial constraints can apply to enroll their child in the After School Program or Enrichment Programs at subsidized rates.
Support funds are sustained by the generous backing of corporate donors and our school community through school-wide fundraisers and donations. The amount and nature of support fluctuate annually and are contingent upon the number of requests received by the Support Fund each year.
