ROS Fundraising Society is a volunteer-led group incorporated under the Societies Act. It is a separate legal entity from ROS Council that works alongside Council volunteers and the school to raise funds for various student needs.
With support from community members like you, ROS Fundraising Society is contributing more than $59,350 for ROS student education needs this 2025-26 school year!
Approved funds for student and teacher educational enhancements such as these are based on collaboration with the school. Without contributions from parents, caregivers and community members like you, these student supports would not be available.
