Donor Recognition
The University of Ottawa considers its donors as part of an inner circle within the broader University community. In correlation with one’s giving history, a donor may receive invitations to:
- special events,
- behind-the-scene tours,
- ceremonies,
- openings and dedications, and
- opportunities to meet professors and students.
Many project leaders have newsletters or updates which they circulate to donors.
Contributors to the Financial Aid and Awards program are also invited to follow the progress and meet with their recipients.
"Thank you again for your kindness and generosity. It is a challenge, putting oneself through university. The award given to me through your fund was a great help --- not only financially, but emotionally as well. Some days it really does seem difficult, but your kindness made it possible."
