Together, we’re building something extraordinary! Discover what the Above & Beyond Capital Campaign means for our school, as well as giving options and more.
This is more than a campaign; it’s a defining moment for ECS’ future as a leader in championing girls' education and ensuring our school remains a vital pillar of Montreal’s English-language educational landscape.
Reaching 100% shows that our whole community believes in ECS and is committed to its future. It is a powerful way to live our Non Nobis value—by giving back, we lead by example for our girls. High participation also signals strength and unity to potential families and funding partners, helping ECS grow and thrive.
There are many ways to give! You can make a one-time or monthly gift online, send a donation by mail, arrange a wire transfer, donate appreciated securities, set up payroll deductions, or request a corporate matching gift. Visit our Ways to Give section for full details on each option.

We are delighted to offer meaningful recognition opportunities for leadership-level gifts, such as named spaces or commemorative acknowledgments. These opportunities will be thoughtfully considered on an individual basis to ensure they reflect the spirit and impact of each gift. Please view our Donor Guide, and contact us to learn more.
Donating publicly traded stocks or mutual funds directly to ECS allows you to avoid capital gains tax and receive a tax receipt for the full value. It is one of the most tax-efficient ways to give.
We are very confident in the strength of our community to rise to the challenge! If we do not reach our fundraising goal by 2027, we will still be in a position to move forward with the priorities we can support, focusing on our most urgent needs. Regardless of the outcome, our students, faculty, and staff will benefit from many enhancements. We are moving ahead with great optimism; the more we raise, the more we can invest in ECS’ future as a strong independent school!
