Message from Inma Beaumont

It is a pleasure to share the 2023 Impact Report with our valued donors and the BGS community.

I want to express my sincere gratitude for your continued support and partnership in our mission to create an environment where every student can achieve their full potential as part of the outstanding education Brisbane Grammar School has to offer.

Since starting in my role as Executive Director Community Relations in 2020, my focus has remained on embedding trust in the School’s relationship with our stakeholders for the benefit of our students, staff, parents, volunteers, old boys and all of the people who make up our wonderful community.

In this report, we share with you some of the highlights of our community members’ achievements, including philanthropic gifts, student philanthropic endeavours and community initiatives.

2024 marks the end of my time at BGS. I am proud of what the Community Relations team has accomplished under my leadership. My message of farewell must be a message of thanks.

As a professional fundraiser, I arrived at the School just before the pandemic. Amid lockdowns and economic uncertainty, I had serious doubts that the School would achieve its fundraising campaign target of $10M of combined funds to support the STEAM Precinct and the Bursary Fund. As of today, I am proud to report that the BGS community has contributed $10M to the STEAM Precinct and approximately $2.5M to the Bursary Fund. The $12.5M contribution is an outstanding result for the campaign, which will improve educational outcomes for all students today and in the future. I remain in awe of you. I hope you enjoy reading and are inspired by the stories of the positive impact our community has on the School and in wider society. I wish you all the very best for the future.

Warm RegardsInma Beaumont
