Our Commitment to Donors

North Island College and the North Island College Foundation value your contribution to our students’ success and will work with you to ensure that your support is appropriately recognized and that your wishes are honoured.

It is our responsibility to care for all gifts we receive in a way that respects the intentions of our donors. We are accountable, transparent and believe in effective communication with our donors, with the ultimate goal of establishing and maintaining successful, long-term relationships.

Keeping Our Donors Informed

Endowment Fund Statement

Each spring, the Foundation mails endowment fund statements to donors. The statements show the donation, matching, and interest totals for the past calendar year (January 1 to December 31).

Annual Award Confirmations

Donors of annually funded awards receive a letter in the fall asking to confirm participation in the following year’s awards program. Donors are asked to confirm by December 31 and forward their annual award cheque to the Foundation by March 31.

Award Recipient & Ceremony Information

Donors of both endowed and annually funded awards receive written notification of the name(s) and program of award recipients along with an invitation to present their award at one of our annual award ceremonies, which are held in May and June. A commemorative photo of the presentation will be mailed to the donor shortly after the ceremony, with a thank you note from the student(s).
