Across the Edmund Rice network, schools continue to show what it means to live out their values through action.

Each year, students, staff and the school community rally together to support Edmund Rice Foundation through a range of initiatives. From student-led fundraising efforts within schools, to national campaigns like Walk for Edmund and Doco in a Day, these communities are passionate advocates for creating positive change.

Educators and staff can deepen this connection through our Into the Heart Immersion program. These experiences allow participants to visit our partner communities, witness the impact firsthand, and bring those powerful insights back into their classrooms and school communities.

What makes this support so powerful is the shared sense of ownership and purpose. Students, educators, and families aren’t just participating – they’re leading, creating, and championing causes that connect them to communities around the world.

Through their ongoing commitment, Edmund Rice schools are not only raising vital funds but fostering a spirit of solidarity and compassion.

We are incredibly grateful for their continued support and the energy they bring to our shared mission.
