Helping us reach for the top
Over the past few years, many donors to Carleton University have asked me how their gift has made a difference to the university’s success.The answer is quite simple — Carleton is growing and prospering in large part due to the support we receive from our donor community.
Personal gifts make a dramatic difference
How far can you stretch $10 these days?If you’re lucky, it might just cover a movie, or lunch with friends (no dessert). But at Carleton University, your money goes a lot further. Ten dollars will get you the gratitude of a student in need or a share of the new state-of-the-art Alumni Hall and Sports Centre.
Double your generosity
The province of Ontario has launched phase two of the Ontario Student Opportunity Trust Fund (OSOTF), a program that will match, dollar for dollar, all donations individuals make to support student bursaries and scholarships at Carleton University.
About this report
Keeping memories alive
Establishing a student award is a meaningful way to remember someone special, so when Laurie Campbell decided to honour her late father, she created the Don Wilton Campbell Memorial Bursary in his name.
Scholarships and bursaries established in 2002
A soaring scholarship
Name many of the Canadian Aerospace Programs that occurred over the last half-century and chances are R. D. Richmond, a 1942 aeronautical engineering graduate of the University of Michigan, had something to do with them.
A new annual tradition
The H.M. Tory Society was originally established to thank Carleton’s many generous donors and recognize their cumulative donations.

Sporty supporter
Alison Korn, MJ/98, understands what it takes to keep your boat afloat. An expert rower, Korn is a two-time world champion and a two-time Olympic medallist. For a time, she successfully juggled both pursuits at once.
Leading the way
Carleton graduate Geoff Mitchinson understands the importance of dialogue. As the vice-president, government affairs and public policy at GlaxoSmithKline, Mitchinson initiates discussion on a variety of complex policy issues between the pharmaceutical giant and the government in an effort to benefit business, government and society as a whole.
Scientific innovator
The northern leopard frog, once found in abundance in the Canadian prairie provinces, is now on the verge of extinction. With the help of a $10,000 Petro-Canada Young Innovator Award, however, Carleton biology professor Mark Forbes is helping the amphibian life-form regain its supremacy in the wild.
A classy campaign
Three eager Carleton students are investing in the future of the university — and are joining to convince their classmates to do the same. Kim Curley, Dave Townsend and Laura Walker are volunteering to lead the 2004 Class Act Campaign, the university’s first-ever graduating gift program.
A gift of unexpected beauty
Jim des Rivières has caught the bug — literally. The 1973 bachelor of science graduate and former computer centre staff member captures and photographs a wide variety of moths, most of which fly at night and are rarely seen by the general public. Until now, that is.
Insuring a legacy
Christine Gibbard had two goals when she purchased a life insurance policy and made Carleton University the owner and beneficiary. One, she wanted to leave a major gift to the university. Two, she wanted to lower her taxes.
My reasons for giving
My donations, whether in dollars or time, allow me to express my gratitude to Carleton for opening doors to opportunity over the years.
