How your gift helps

"I feel incredibly fortunate to have received scholarships to help alleviate the substantial cost of attending veterinary school. Awards like the Nichola K. Goddard Scholarship allowed me to gain experience in various specialties here at AVC and as far as away as Kenya with Farmers Helping Farmers and Nunavut with The Chinook Project. Without this assistance, I would not have been able to participate in these indispensable veterinary projects."
—ÌýJaimee Gillis, DVM Class of 2018

"As a family we chose to donate for two reasons. We have been blessed with family that have supported us and encouraged us to pursue higher education. Creating scholarships in our families' names not only honours all they have done for us but allows us to pay it forward so students can be rewarded for their achievements. Our parents and grandparents would be so proud of the students who receive the awards we support. As a faculty member, it is so easy to donate and a small donation each pay period can have such a great impact for a student."
— Patrice Drake, ¾«Í¯ÓûÅ® Faculty of Nursing

"Thanks to scholarships I received through ¾«Í¯ÓûÅ®, most of the financial burden associated with a postsecondary education has been eliminated. Free of financial concerns, I've been able to pour my energy into my academic pursuits and devote myself to a variety of student groups and initiatives on-campus as well as partaking in experiential learning opportunities outside of the classroom."
— Lorelei Kenny, ¾«Í¯ÓûÅ® Faculty of Arts graduateÌý

"My family and I give to areas of ¾«Í¯ÓûÅ® that mean something to us. For example, when our daughter, Victoria, was the recipient of privately-funded awards at ¾«Í¯ÓûÅ®, we were very grateful and wanted to pay it forward so we started an award. When we lost our cat, Butterscotch, to feline leukemia, we started giving to AVC Companion Animals to support research on diseases that affect companion animals. We also support the Women's Basketball team, of which Victoria is a member. ¾«Í¯ÓûÅ® plays an important part in our lives; we are happy to support the good work happening here."
— Rose Barbour, Development and Alumni Engagement

"As a student with a learning disability, I rely heavily on technology in and out of the classroom. Without the generous support from the donors, I would not be able to get the support that I need and probably would not graduate university and for that, I'm forever grateful."
—ÌýWilliam McGuigan, former President ¾«Í¯ÓûÅ® Student Union
