New matching campaign doubles the impact of your gift today

The Algonquin College Alumni & Friends Network has launched a matching campaign to support the newest building at the Ottawa campus: DARE District.

All alumni gifts made towards the DARE District will be matched dollar for dollar up to the $50,000 goal, giving you the opportunity to double your gift and amplify your impact on the lives of AC students.

Opening in May, the building will include the College’s new Library and Learning Centre, an Indigenous Commons, a Makerspace, a Cyber-Security Centre, and more. It will be home to new training and test facilities for high-demand job sectors, a multimedia production facility, expanded Applied Research and Innovation programs, and Indigenous entrepreneurship projects – and serve as a multidisciplinary space for students, faculty, researchers, and businesses.

Algonquin College President Cheryl Jensen says, “We are dedicated to Discovery. We are dedicated to Applied Research. We are dedicated to Entrepreneurship. In fact, we are committed to instilling an entrepreneurial mindset throughout the College – in our students and our employees. We are ready to dare. To be bold. To be strong. To be imaginative.”
