The Collège Boréal Foundation

Every year, many donors choose to make a contribution to Collège Boréal. Some even commit to renewing it for several years (Promise to donate). By supporting our institutional and departmental projects through an annual donation, you are supporting the development of the Collège and providing conducive learning conditions on a regular basis as well as an environment that helps train better students. For example, for the health department, annual donations can be used to purchase modern equipment, such as state-of-the-art equipment for the Dental Clinic, allowing dental hygiene students to become more familiar with the technologies they will use in their future practice. If you have studied at Collège Boréal, you may have already benefited from the outcomes of a donation.

A planned donation can be immediate contributions (including cash) or deferred contributions (such as a testamentary gift). Whatever form of payment you choose to make, planned donations allow you to contribute to the development of Collège Boréal while being advantageous from a tax perspective. Deferred planned donations are becoming increasingly popular because they offer you the opportunity to spread your donation over a longer period of time. Thus, the impact of your donation on your income is reduced and it ensures stable revenue for Collège Boréal allowing it to better set its medium-term and long-term development goals. Collège Boréal offers you five types of planned donations. We invite you to consult the page on the types of planned donations to choose the one that best suits your situation and intentions.

By definition, a designated capital fund is a fund that is put into the Collège Boréal Endowment Fund and administered according to established policies. Its capital is inalienable and the income is used to protect the capital and support the activities chosen by the donor. All designated capital funds are put into the Collège Boréal Endowment Fund, which is managed in the perspective of profitability and sustainability of activities. You can choose to devote the income from a designated capital fund to Collège Boréal, to a unit, to a specific field of study, to a scholarship, or even to a specific person. The fund can bear the name of the donor or anyone else chosen by the donor. The creation of a designated capital fund is advantageous for each of the interested parties. It meets the expectations of the donor who wants to offer sustainable support to Collège Boréal and allows the College to continue its development.

A donor can choose to create a scholarship or award in their name or in the name of someone they designate. The donor can also specify to which category of people this distinction will be awarded (student, project or departments). Student members are the main recipients of scholarships and awards that can be offered. The objective is not only to highlight the excellence of the results obtained or support the work undertaken by talented students. In some cases, scholarships are awarded to students whose financial situation is precarious in order to encourage them to persevere and successfully obtain their diploma! These scholarships and awards allow the donor’s objectives to be aligned with those of Collège Boréal, which is the best guarantee of sustainable success.

Why not give meaning to the loss of a person by making a donation in their memory? Here’s a way to pay tribute to them and create hope for a cause that was close to their heart. You can also decide not to allocate your donation to a particular project, which allows Collège Boréal to use it where the needs are greatest. Once we receive your donation, we notify the family and loved ones if that is your wish and we can send in memoriam cards to the funeral home.

Each Vipères athlete of the season must commit to raising a minimum of $300 in sponsorship for their season. The funds raised are used to purchase their Vipères clothes kits which are worth more than $300. The “Adopt a Vipères Athlete” program helps alleviate their financial burden and the funds raised directly support the student athlete. The money will be used to cover travel expenses, meal per diems, equipment, and sports kits. The financial and moral support provided by our alumni, families, and friends are the main reason that allows our student athletes to excel in their respective sport and in their studies.
