Donor Services

The Advancement team plays a critical role in building and cultivating relationships with donors and provides the important link to help guide our community. We work with individual schools and departments of the college to determine the college's fundraising priorities and ensure every donor who makes a commitment to Camosun is appreciated and acknowledged in a way that is meaningful to them.
