United Way at Camosun

Since 1994 Camosun has partnered with United Way Southern Vancouver Island (UWSVI) raising funds in benefit of the community we call home. Each Fall semester, Camosun hosts the annual United Way employee giving campaign.

This year is our 28th year supporting local community need!

While Camosun’s support has always been strong, the past two years of the pandemic have not afforded us the occasion to hold a full campaign with exciting events and fundraising opportunities. This fall we resume our collective efforts to "being responsive to our community's needs" - a social responsibility identified by our students and employees alike, as expressed in the recent ThoughtExchange on "what is most important" to us.

2022 Campaign Dates:

Oct 24 to Nov 18, 2022, aligning with UWSVI's 4 areas of action

Each year Camosun invites employees to step forward and volunteer as a United Way campaign co-chair or ambassador. This meaningful opportunity is a chance to gain new experience or contribute your existing experience towards Camosun’s annual employee giving campaign.

As of Aug 2022, Camosun's community has raised an incredible $1,556,315.34 to help those who need it most. And, many times we’ve won the annual Spirit Award: Post-Secondary Challenge Cup that recognizes the high level of participation and the spirit of generosity of our Camosun donors and volunteers.
