Mission Statement
UBC has been at the heart of British Columbia’s evolution for more than 100 years. Our alumni - 320,000 and growing - have provided the professional, artistic and entrepreneurial vision that has animated this province and, increasingly, the rest of Canada. Now, as one of the top universities in the world, UBC is reaching far beyond these borders.
About This Cause
The portfolio of the Vice-President Development and Alumni Engagement (DAE) came into being in 2008, joining the Development (fundraising) and alumni UBC functions under one umbrella. DAE champions UBC’s visions and values, fosters alumni engagement and attracts supporters to advance the institution. The alumni UBC unit, specifically, works in strategic partnership with UBC’s Alumni Association – an independent organization founded in 1917. In the autumn of 2011, the University launched start an evolution: the most ambitious fundraising and alumni engagement Campaign in Canadian history. The Campaign is unique in that it has twin goals: * To raise $1.5 billion for student learning, research excellence and community engagement by the end of the Campaign * To double the number of alumni engaged with the university to 50,000 annually by the end of the Campaign. The Campaign is scheduled to run until 2015. Generations of faculty, staff, students, alumni and community supporters have built an outstanding university. With the combined talents of Development and alumni UBC under one portfolio, we will continue to benefit from their foresight, cultivate their enthusiasm and welcome their investment.
