Campaign Update

Front and Centre

The impact of the Front and Centre campaign can be seen across our campuses and around our community, thanks to the commitment of our alumni. Whether it's a gift of $20 or $2 million, alumni from across the globe are taking their place by supporting diverse projects, including a professorship in hematology, an endowed research chair in MS, scholarships for Indigenous MBA students, and international study programs.

Watch a short video message from our alumni, staff, faculty, students – and even some future students – about why they're supporting the campaign.
