OUR PURPOSE
The Wymark Futures Group is an incorporated non profit registered charity which came into being in June of 2005 through a motion passed by the Wymark School Local Board with 4 of its members to sit as directors together with 5 citizens from the Wymark community.
Our Mission – To solicit funds in order to sustain the viability of the
Wymark School which will serve students, parents and the community of Wymark.
Vision – A group of community leaders working toward a healthy, growing and sustainable community with strong academic and athletic programs.
​
With the considerable cutbacks in funding by our current government to the Chinook School Board our school auditorium and programs have become increasingly dependent on outside funding to improve or even maintain some of the school and public needs. Our group is very aware that rural communities are eroding and with them their local schools. We believe that Wymark School is not immune to this and as stated in our mission statement we are working hard and will continue to work toward sustaining the schools viability and the schools future.
​
Our objective is to raise money in order that the Wymark School can better serve both students and community. Since our inception we have, thru Sask Lotteries grants, fund raising initiatives and donations spent $137,182.00 to this cause. 80,000.00 to the construction of a stage in the school auditorium, $12,000.00 to the purchase of a security grill for the stage,$5700 for a screen and projector,$6700 for a new score clock, $6000.00 for the purchase of new chairs for the auditorium, $4000 for new wall padding in the gymnasium , $7000 for the basketball hoops and backboards in the gymnasium and $11,500.00 for a new sound system. In this past year we funded swimming lessons, skating lessons, track and field equipment and art supplies at a cost of $4282.00.
We would like to give special thanks to SWT for their generous donations over the years and a big thank you to the Sask Lotteries grant and the RM of Swift Current 137 for the distribution of the Lotteries grant.
