After grad events are held at many secondary schools throughout the province to provide a fun, safe, alcohol and drug-free, chaperoned after-party for the graduating class. It is organized by parent volunteers who fundraise and plan the event with student input. The event is heavily subsidized by fundraising, which goes towards the cost of the venue, entertainment, food, activities and prizes. We try to provide this event at minimal cost to the students to encourage all to attend.
After Grad celebrations are a tradition that started many years ago by Mothers Against Drunk Driving (MADD) as a way to reduce injuries and fatalities from unsupervised after parties that happened following high school graduations. We are excited to continue this tradition for our grads so they can celebrate safely before heading off on their post secondary journeys.
Corporate donors will be recognized here and at the event. We can't do it without you!
The Gleneagle After Grad 2026 Fundraising is underway!
We are looking for volunteers to help fundraise and plan - any amount of time is welcome!
