Supporting the transformative power of education
We inspire giving to transform lives and communities.
We engage community to invest in Okanagan College’s campuses, learning spaces, equipment, and programs, and we create opportunities for donors to help students fulfill their potential through education.
-
We build sustainable funds which support the success of today’s students and manage the growth of our endowment to safeguard that of future generations.
-
We build trust and credibility with donors through sound financial management and good governance. We value transparency and integrity and adopt the Donor Bill of Rights.
-
We support the College’s commitment to equality, diversity, inclusion, and social justice.
-
We pledge to work with, learn from and listen to our Indigenous communities as we engage donors to help advance the College’s journey toward reconciliation.
-
We engage community to support Okanagan College’s Inspire Plan – fund development responds to and advances the strategic priorities of the College and the regions it serves.
