Branksome Hall Alum Donor Wall
Branksome Hall Alum Donor Wall
Cement your legacy and showcase your Branksome connection.
Support Branksome's future and become part of its history by securing your place on the new Alum Donor Wall. Located prominently on the second floor of the Karen L. Jurjevich Innovation Centre and Studio Theatre (iCAST), it will greet visitors as they enter from the bridge connecting the Athletics and Wellness Centre (AWC) to iCAST. You will join 300 of your fellow alums, recognized together on a five-foot tall “BH” that stretches 10-feet across, with names inscribed on vibrant green acrylic plates. This exclusive opportunity is only available to our alums, allowing you to leave a lasting legacy at your alma mater while helping to guarantee the continuous growth and enrichment of Branksome’s students.
An opportunity like this hasn't been available since the AWC opened in 2015. And, like the pavers lining the Alum Walkway, spaces on the Alum Donor Wall are limited, with only 300 available. With names grouped by class, this is also a beautiful opportunity to be recognized alongside your classmates.

LAND ACKNOWLEDGMENT
We wish to acknowledge this land on which Branksome operates. For thousands of years, it has been the traditional land of the Wendat, the Seneca, and most recently, the Mississaugas of the Credit River. Today, this meeting place is still the home to many Indigenous peoples from across Turtle Island and we are grateful to have the opportunity to work and go to school on this land.*
*The Land Acknowledgement may evolve as we honour our commitment to Truth and Reconciliation in partnership with Indigenous communities.
