About LPAF
A community foundation,
built on shared roots.
The Lindsay Place Alumni Foundation was founded in 2012 by a small group of graduates who wanted to give back to the school that shaped them. What started as bursaries and uniform funds grew — year by year, event by event — into a community foundation with a much wider reach.
When Lindsay Place High School closed in 2021, we made a choice: continue. The friendships, the cause, the events — none of that needed a building. We expanded our focus to organizations in the West Island and beyond that share our values: palliative care, children's health, youth programs, and community spaces.
More than $180,000 given since 2012. Four active partner causes. Zero spent on salaries or overhead.

Mission
Honour. Give. Connect.

Zero.
No salaries, no office expenses, only the minimal fees required to operate. Volunteer-led, always.
