Impact student success with the Â鶹´«Ã½ Fund

The Â鶹´«Ã½ Fund is the university’s annual fundraising appeal. Each year, thousands of alumni and friends come together to support students and enhance educational opportunities. In recent years, that meant more than $5 million was raised for important initiatives, programs, and awards. 

Gifts to the Â鶹´«Ã½ Fund make a meaningful difference to encourage student success through: scholarships and bursaries, opportunities for hands-on learning such as field research, competitions, and international study, state-of-the-art technology , and community-focused activities such as internships, outreach clinics, or service learning.

Giving is easy

Monthly giving

You’ll be pleasantly surprised by the impact you can make by setting up a monthly gift to the Â鶹´«Ã½ Fund. And it’s easy to do! It can be a monthly charge on your credit card, a preauthorized gift from your bank account (with a voided cheque) or, if you’re a Dal employee, a payroll deduction.

An annual gift

Making a gift every year to the Â鶹´«Ã½ Fund ensures the university, your faculty or program continues to grow stronger every year. It ensures that more and more students receive that special and unique educational experience that sets Â鶹´«Ã½ apart.

Class projects

Class Giving Projects are about Â鶹´«Ã½ alumni reuniting with their class and working together to make a difference in the lives of current and future students. 

Special projects

Â鶹´«Ã½ Fund special projects are unique funding opportunities, often connected to a larger initiative or fundraising campaign.
